* dd = drop down menu
* plain = plain text search
*/
$xmi_mode = "live";

Modules

Configure the modules to be used in this ARK project:

// List the modules that need to be loaded in this ARK project
$loaded_modules = 
    array(
	'abk', // address book
        'cxt', // contexts
        'pln', // plans
	'smp', // samples
        'spf', // Special finds

Security

The security for ARK is handled by LiveUser. The liveuser configuration is as follows:

// Liveuser: 
// These are the names of the liveuser objects. They should be unique per ARK 
// (to prevent cross ark hacking). They need to be called in the code as
// $$liveuser and $$liveuser_admin
$liveuser = $ark_name . 'usr';
$liveuser_admin = $ark_name . 'usr' . '_admin';
// The path to the login script (relative to the document root)
$loginScript = 'index.php';
// Anonymous Logins
// If these variables are set then you are allowing anonymous logins
// This is a security risk! Its best to leave these statements commented out.
// Bear in mind that this does not need to be a real user.
$anonymous_login['username'] = 'anon';
$anonymous_login['password'] = 'anon';
// Method used in forms:
// get = form messages sent via get method - vissible in browser bar.
// post = form message sent via post method - invisible to the user.
$form_method = 'get';
