Michael Peter Christen b1380c4a9f cleaned up user authentication
this removes the userDB-exception in the normal
authentication process which affected mostly wiki
and blog which are not required any more. We also
cleaned up translation messages as this function was
not used at all. This is a required step forward
a renovation of the jetty server.

Your Personal Profile

Purpose

Your Personal Profile describes this peer operator to other users or peers when profile sharing is enabled.

Use it to publish only information that should be visible in the YaCy environment.

What You Can Do Here

  • Your Personal Profile describes this peer operator to other users or peers when profile sharing is enabled.
  • Read the current value before changing it.
  • Verify the effect on the public page, status page, or related administration page.

Page Architecture

Configuration pages usually contain persistent settings. A visible form writes values into YaCy configuration, while the backend may reload subsystems such as language files, network listeners, cache handling, or search presentation.

Control Meaning Values or examples
name Name. Text value; use the page label and surrounding context to choose the exact content.
nickname Nick Name. Text value; use the page label and surrounding context to choose the exact content.
homepage Homepage (appears on every Supporter Page as long as your peer is online). Text value; use the page label and surrounding context to choose the exact content.
email eMail. Text value; use the page label and surrounding context to choose the exact content.
icq ICQ. Text value; use the page label and surrounding context to choose the exact content.
jabber Jabber. Text value; use the page label and surrounding context to choose the exact content.
yahoo Yahoo!. Text value; use the page label and surrounding context to choose the exact content.
msn MSN. Text value; use the page label and surrounding context to choose the exact content.
skype Skype. Text value; use the page label and surrounding context to choose the exact content.
comment Comment. Text value; use the page label and surrounding context to choose the exact content.
set Submits and applies the basic configuration. Save

Correct Use

Read the current value before changing it. Configuration changes often persist beyond the current request and may affect later crawling, search, network contact, authentication, or resource use. Change one operational idea at a time and verify the result.

Access And Safety

Administrator access is required. YaCy protects _p pages as administration pages.

Protected related endpoint(s): /ConfigProfile_p.html.

Automation And API

Page backend: source/net/yacy/htroot/ConfigProfile_p.java.

Endpoint Method Access Backend
/ConfigProfile_p.html GET admin source/net/yacy/htroot/ConfigProfile_p.java

Parameter Guide

The table explains values that an agent or script must set deliberately. Parameters not relevant to a task should be omitted or left at the page default.

Example request shape:

GET /ConfigProfile_p.html?name=...&nickname=...&homepage=...&email=...&icq=...

What To Expect

A successful change is visible as a saved value, a confirmation, or changed behavior on a related page. Some settings take effect immediately; others require reconnecting, reloading translations, restarting services, or watching the status page.
