Introducing the System tab
The System tab contains features such as System Settings, Users Settings, Media Settings, Debug Settings, Cache Settings, and Session Settings.
System Settings
The System Settings involve the following settings:
Secret Word: This is an auto-generated random code for each installation and is used for security reasons. This code cannot be changed.
Path to Log folder: This feature defines the folder or directory location in which the folder log file will be stored.
Web Services: This feature provides the facility to make RPC (Remote Procedure Calls) using HTTP as the transport medium and XML as the encoding language. The default selection for this setting is Yes.
Help Server: This setting provides a list of the available help resources in different language options or alternatives. This setting is not important, so you do not need to change this setting; you can leave it at default. The default selection is Joomla!'s main help site, http://help.joomla.org.
