Can I set ft_min_word_len through virtualmin?

I tried and was told that the setting were

“Warning - Variables set on this page will be reset to their default values when MySQL is restarted. Permanent settings must be made on the MySQL Server Configuration page.”

I went to the Server Config Page and do not see where it is. Can I just manually edit eh my.conf file?

Howdy,

Yeah, I would just make that change by directly editing the my.cnf file.

Note that changing that option requires some additional setup on your part.

You can read about the details here:

You’ll need to rebuild all your text indexes, which can be done using myisamchk. They describe how to do that near the end of the documentation above.
