Remove "Instance settings" section?

[joe-cole1]

I deployed gathio via Docker Compose. Very happy with how it works, but I dislike the Instance Description and Instance Settings block on the front page.

I've removed the Instance Description by SSH'ing into the container and editing instance-description.md, but this manual editing does not survive a container recreate and does not help with the Instance Settings block.

Am I missing something? If not, can I submit this as a feature request to control the visibility of these two sections via the config file?

Thank you!

I have no problem with adding some config to remove the instance description - I'll see if I can get to it this week.

The fact that your instance description and custom pages don't survive a container recreate is a bug, though! They need to live outside the container, of course.

Thanks for the response! Really loving the platform so far.

I did not edit them outside the container, so I didn't expect them to survive.

Would I simply create a static folder, much like the config and images folder, then map static in the docker compose?

Yep, that would do it! I just need to make it the default in the docker compose file and in the docs.
