-# Configuring instance
-You can configure your instance from admin interface. You need account with admin rights and little change in config file, which will allow settings configuration from database.
-
-```elixir
-config :pleroma, configurable_from_database: true
-```
-
-## How it works
-Settings are stored in database and are applied in `runtime` after each change. Most of the settings take effect immediately, except some, which need instance reboot.
-
-## How to set it up
-You need to migrate your existing settings to the database. This task will migrate only added by user settings.
-For example you add settings to `prod.secret.exs` file, only these settings will be migrated to database. For release it will be `/etc/pleroma/config.exs` or `PLEROMA_CONFIG_PATH`.
-You can do this with mix task (all config files will remain untouched):
-
-```sh tab="OTP"
- ./bin/pleroma_ctl config migrate_to_db
-```
-
-```sh tab="From Source"
-mix pleroma.config migrate_to_db
-```
-
-Now you can change settings in admin interface. If `reboot time` settings were changed, pleroma must be rebooted.

-**<span style="color:red">Be careful while changing the settings. Every inaccurate configuration change can break the federation or the instance load.</span>**
-
-*Compile time settings, which require instance reboot and can break instance loading:*
-- all settings inside these keys:
-  - `:hackney_pools`
-  - `:chat`
-  - `Oban`
-  - `:rate_limit`
-  - `:markup`
-  - `:streamer`
-- partially settings inside these keys:
-  - `:seconds_valid` in `Pleroma.Captcha`
-  - `:proxy_remote` in `Pleroma.Upload`
-  - `:upload_limit` in `:instance`
-  - `:digest` in `:email_notifications`
-  - `:clean_expired_tokens` in `:oauth2`
-  - `:enabled` in `Pleroma.ActivityExpiration`
-  - `:enabled` in `Pleroma.ScheduledActivity`
-  - `:enabled` in `:gopher`
-
-## How to dump settings from database to file
-
-*Adding `-d` flag will delete migrated settings from database table.*
-
-```sh tab="OTP"
- ./bin/pleroma_ctl config migrate_from_db [-d]
-```
-
-```sh tab="From Source"
-mix pleroma.config migrate_from_db [-d]
-```
-
-
-## How to completely remove it
-
-1. Truncate or delete all values from `config` table
-```sql
-TRUNCATE TABLE config;
-```
-2. If migrate_from_db task was runned, backup and delete `config/{env}.exported_from_db.exs`.
-
-For `prod` env:
-```bash
-cd /opt/pleroma
-cp config/prod.exported_from_db.exs config/exported_from_db.back
-rm -rf config/prod.exported_from_db.exs
-```
-*If you don't want to backup settings, you can skip step with `cp` command.*
-
-3. Set configurable_from_database to `false`.
-```elixir
-config :pleroma, configurable_from_database: false
-```
-4. Restart pleroma instance
-```bash
-sudo service pleroma restart
-```
