Advanced site owners may want to customize protection modes. They can be fully configured by adding a configuration file for an individual site or the entire server.
config/0_settings/protection.txt
config/mysite.example/0_site/settings/protection.txt
The server-wide file will override built-in defaults. The site-specific file will override the server-wide file and built-in defaults.
Here is an example file that documents the current built-in defaults. It can also be
directly downloaded.
Note that individual levels carry through as defaults into the next mode section.
