Introduction

Frontend customizing is a mechanism to customize various parameters of the frontend. There are not many settings you can do, as this mechanism is relatively new. However, this mechanism will be used more and more in the future.

How it works

Customizing Contenido settings is very easy and can be done via the system or client customizing settings.

Important: User settings have precendence before group settings. User settings always override group settings. If the user is added to more than one group, the result is undefined. Make sure that your groups don't override each other.
