Aura: Full Screen Reading setting lost

Josieb1 · 10-03-2014, 04:43 PM

I've got an Aura running 3.80. I had a problem earlier and had to do a restart. Since then i've lost the section in Reading Settings to turn off header and footer (I'm sure i had a check box there)

I've had a look at the Config File and its nothing like I remember (I have a copy of 3.3's) and I have no section titled Feature Settings any more so I have no idea where to insert

FullScreenReading=true

Can anyone advise?

Edited to say that if i open my config file in Notepad ++ I have 45 lines now, compared to 202 lines in 3.30

Just add a section called [FeatureSettings] and the FullScreenReading=true line between any of the existing sections or at the end (anywhere but in the middle of an existing section really). Should look like below:

[FeatureSettings]
FullScreenReading=true

and you should be good to go.

Thanks very much, its good to know I can add a section in like that.

I have actually just fixed it by going back to 3.30, replacing the condensed config file with the copy I took, then going back to 3.80 and everything was then back to normal. I've taken a copy now of the 3.80 config file.

I have no idea what happened though
