From a7bd91d7d88a8408929f0f7e580bec83fa3effdb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anya Marshall Date: Wed, 12 Mar 2014 19:52:10 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Update documentation to clarify Image Upload setting The documentation at http://docs.openstack.org/developer/horizon/topics /deployment.html#file-uploads states that the end user should change the setting "HORIZON_IMAGES_ALLOW_UPLOAD = False" to disable image uploads. This suggests that image uploads will be completely disabled, however it will still be possible to upload images via URL. This change adds this clarification to the documentation.
