Server configuration

This section covers server-level configuration for XenForo, including the config.php file, Unicode support, and caching systems.

Config.php options

All of the information XenForo needs to connect to your database server is located in the src/config.php file.

XenForo 2 supports full unicode text, which means that emoji can be used in almost all locations that users can enter text.

For larger XenForo installations, it can be advantageous to define a cache in order to save on processing time and database queries.
