Replace the FogBugz logo in the top left of every page with your own.

Upload File Size Maximum*

Determines the maximum size for each individual uploaded file attached to a case or wiki. This option is not available for FogBugz On Demand accounts which have a fixed file size maximum of 10 MB

Trusted File Types

To protect the user from potentially dangerous files, FogBugz appends ".unsafe" to the end of filenames of attachments from public projects or email submissions. FogBugz does not change the filenames of files with the types listed here.

Maintenance URL*

FogBugz uses a service running on the server at all times to check email, perform background full-text indexing, and many other periodic maintenance tasks. This is the URL that service uses to communicate with FogBugz. In most cases, the default is OK: it's the same as the URL where you access FogBugz. You only need to change this in rare cases: if you have an unusual DNS configuration, like a load balancer, or if the FogBugz server itself doesn't have access to FogBugz through the normal URL. Not necessary for FogBugz On Demand.

Protect FogBugz Actions

This option enables security tokens to prevent cross-site scripting attacks. Only uncheck this option if you need to submit forms from another website.

Check For Updates*

Allows FogBugz to connect to Fog Creek Software servers once a week to check if there is a new version of FogBugz available and to warn you if your maintenance contract is about to run out. Only your order number will be transmitted to Fog Creek Software. This option is not necessary for FogBugz On Demand, which is kept continuously up-to-date.

Reset FogBugz Autosort

Removes all the learning that FogBugz AutoSort has done. After you do this, FogBugz AutoSort will forget everything it knows about what consititutes spam and how to sort incoming inquiries into areas, and you will have to train it again.

This can be used if you find that FogBugz AutoSort is thoroughly and completely confused about how to sort messages and discussion posts, and you want to start training it again from scratch.

Site Diagnostics*

Diagnostics runs a series of tests on FogBugz to make sure everything is working as expected. Run this first if you are experiencing problems.

Check Database checks the current state of the FogBugz database tables against the schema for this FogBugz release, and attempts to add any missing tables, rows, or indexes. It reports any problems it encounters in repairing the database.

These options are not available for FogBugz On Demand as site health is maintained for you by Fog Creek.
