lotus.settings.LOTUS_TAG_PAGINATION = 40#

lotus.settings.LOTUS_ENABLE_TAG_INDEX_VIEW = True#

To allow (True) or not (False) the tag index view. This option exists because tag index view may have performance issues and is not always required in some projects.

Note

The tag index part will still appears in breadcrumbs since it won’t have any meaning to locate a tag detail at the root of Lotus breadcrumbs. However it won’t have any link to click.

lotus.settings.LOTUS_ARTICLE_PUBLICATION_STATE_NAMES = {'featured': 'featured', 'pinned': 'pinned', 'private': 'private', 'publish_end_passed': 'passed', 'publish_start_below': 'not-yet', 'status_available': 'available', 'status_draft': 'draft'}#

Available article state names.

You can remove an entry to ignore some states and they won’t be returned in article states.

Note than publish_start_below and publish_end_passed are only elligible with available state enabled and never if draft state is enabled.

In practice draft, publish_start_below and publish_end_passed states will only be visible for admin in preview mode since other users can not view this kind of articles.

In the same way the private state will only be visible to authenticated users.

You may change state value since they are mostly label however it can break some default lotus templates which may use them so you will have to override these templates.

Not all views have a static crumb title, like all detail views use directly the object title as a crumb title, so they won’t be editable from this setting.
