Configuration files

Main storage

Phobox uses the latest defined storage as default storage and opens this up. The information is stored in the user home directory in the hidden file .phobox.properties. If you want to use another storage directory, you can change the path in this file. Restart phobox to active the change.

Storage configurations

Phobox saves a bunch of settings for a storage. This settings are stored in the phobox.yaml file in the phobox sub-directory of your storage. There you can change some settings for this storage.
