+
+This plugin allows wiki admins to configure the wiki using a web interface,
+rather than editing the setup file directly. A "Wiki Setup" button is added to the
+admins' preferences page.
+
+Most settings can be modified using the web interface. Some settings are
+not considered safe enough to be manipulated over the web; these are still
+shown, by default, but cannot be modified. To hide them, set `websetup_show_unsafe`
+to false in the setup file. A few settings have too complex a data type
+to be configured via the web.
+
+The web interface can also be used to enable and disable plugins, with
+limitations. The plugin for the [[revision_control_system|rcs]] being used
+cannot be enabled/disabled, and no other rcs plugins can be enabled. A few
+problematic/unsafe plugins are also blacklisted from being enabled. Other
+plugins that should not be enabled/disabled via the web interface can be
+listed in `websetup_force_plugins` in the setup file.
