+### Changing the config path only
|
|
|

|
|
|
+In situations where you want to keep the PrivateBin static files separate from the
|
|
|
+rest of your data, or you want to reuse the installation files on multiple vhosts,
|
|
|
+you may only want to change the `conf.php`. In this instance, you can set the
|
|
|
+`CONFIG_PATH` environment variable to the absolute path to the `conf.php` file.
|
|
|
+This can be done in your web server's virtual host config, the PHP config, or in
|
|
|
+the index.php if you choose to customize it.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Note that your PHP process will need read access to the config wherever it may be.
