!description
|-
|$wgWikisphereUploadDisableWarnings
|true/false
|disable "was-deleted", "duplicate" and "duplicate-archive" warnings on file upload (requires the patches in the file [[Source code & patches/includes/upload/UploadBase.php|includes/upload/UploadBase.php]])
|-
|$wgWikisphereUploadUnderCurrentPage
|true/false
|upload images under the current page. E.g. A picture named "cover.png" will be uploaded in the path Book name/cover.png rather than without any path (as in standard WIKIs). This allows the use of generic name for pictures, which are by contrast characterized by their path. (requires the patches [[Source code & patches#Files.2FUpload|described here]])
|-
|$wgWikisphereAllowCreationRegularPages
|true/false
|if the extension Wikisphere PageOwnership is installed, regular users cannot create pages outside their owned pages. Setting this variable to true in combination with $wgWikisphereHandleDraftState set to "new" or "all" lets regulars users to create any page, at the same time leaving to moderators the power to publish them when appropriate
|-
|$wgWikisphereCreateOwnedPageRealName
|true/false
|if the extension Wikisphere PageOwnership is installed, automatically creates an owned page corresponding to the user's real name as soon as an user signs in
|-
|$wgWikisphereCreateOwnedPageTimestamp
|true/false
|if the extension Wikisphere PageOwnership is installed, automatically creates an owned page corresponding to the timestamp of the user's account creation as soon as an user signs in
|-
|$wgWikispherePostOnWikisphere
|true/false
|posts the semantic content on the global wikisphere.org database (front-end)
|-
|$wgWikisphereHandleDraftState
|none, new, all, owned
|requires the extension Wikisphere PageProperties. If set to "none" the pages don't need to be explicitly published through the page Properties (reachable from the dropdown of page actions, see picture ...) to be accessible to everybody. If set to "new" only new pages need to be explicitly published to be accessible to everybody. If set to "owned" only owned pages and sub-pages need to be published to be accessible to everybody or to be posted on the global  wikisphere.org database (front-end)
