[ckan-dev] Changing site title on extension

Fri Mar 4 14:08:27 UTC 2016

Hi,

Sorry I missed your first email, I might have saved you some time.

Does config_option_update at https://github.com/ckan/ckan/blob/master/ckan/logic/action/update.py#L1165 help? It's used by the admin controller when you edit config at http://mysite/ckan-admin 

It's CKAN >= 2.4 but nobody should be running less than 2.4 now (I know people do, but please don't).

Debugging a litle showed that on https://github.com/ckan/ckan/blob/887b8514ce23e54100f894391495047410e8d821/ckan/config/environment.py#L265 , the update config is called prior to the config file is read by ckan, so no matter what I do, I will never be able to update the logo except on the config file itself. Any thoughts on how should I do this? I prefer not to hack ckan internally for this to work.
