    342346========
    343347
    344 A few :doc:`Django settings </ref/settings>` give you control over message
    345 behavior:
    346 
    347 MESSAGE_LEVEL
    348 -------------
    349 
    350 Default: ``messages.INFO``
    351 
    352 This sets the minimum message that will be saved in the message storage.  See
    353 `Message levels`_ above for more details.
    354 
    355 .. admonition:: Important
    356 
    357    If you override ``MESSAGE_LEVEL`` in your settings file and rely on any of
    358    the built-in constants, you must import the constants module directly to
    359    avoid the potential for circular imports, e.g.::
    360 
    361        from django.contrib.messages import constants as message_constants
    362        MESSAGE_LEVEL = message_constants.DEBUG
    363 
    364    If desired, you may specify the numeric values for the constants directly
    365    according to the values in the above :ref:`constants table
    366    <message-level-constants>`.
    367 
    368 MESSAGE_STORAGE
    369 ---------------
    370 
    371 Default: ``'django.contrib.messages.storage.user_messages.LegacyFallbackStorage'``
    372 
    373 Controls where Django stores message data. Valid values are:
    374 
    375     * ``'django.contrib.messages.storage.fallback.FallbackStorage'``
    376     * ``'django.contrib.messages.storage.session.SessionStorage'``
    377     * ``'django.contrib.messages.storage.cookie.CookieStorage'``
    378     * ``'django.contrib.messages.storage.user_messages.LegacyFallbackStorage'``
    379 
    380 See `Storage backends`_ for more details.
    381 
    382 MESSAGE_TAGS
    383 ------------
    384 
    385 Default::
    386 
    387         {messages.DEBUG: 'debug',
    388         messages.INFO: 'info',
    389         messages.SUCCESS: 'success',
    390         messages.WARNING: 'warning',
    391         messages.ERROR: 'error',}
    392 
    393 This sets the mapping of message level to message tag, which is typically
    394 rendered as a CSS class in HTML. If you specify a value, it will extend
    395 the default. This means you only have to specify those values which you need
    396 to override. See `Displaying messages`_ above for more details.
    397 
    398 .. admonition:: Important
    399 
    400    If you override ``MESSAGE_TAGS`` in your settings file and rely on any of
    401    the built-in constants, you must import the ``constants`` module directly to
    402    avoid the potential for circular imports, e.g.::
    403 
    404        from django.contrib.messages import constants as message_constants
    405        MESSAGE_TAGS = {message_constants.INFO: ''}
    406 
    407    If desired, you may specify the numeric values for the constants directly
    408    according to the values in the above :ref:`constants table
    409    <message-level-constants>`.

    1387 ---------------------

    1389 Default: ``None``
    1390 
    1391 The domain to use for session cookies. Set this to a string such as
    1392 ``".lawrence.com"`` for cross-domain cookies, or use ``None`` for a standard

    1399 
    1400 Default: ``False``
    1401 
    1402 Whether to use HTTPOnly flag on the session cookie. If this is set to
    1403 ``True``, client-side JavaScript will not to be able to access the
    1404 session cookie.
    1405 
    1406 HTTPOnly_ is a flag included in a Set-Cookie HTTP response header. It
    1407 is not part of the RFC2109 standard for cookies, and it isn't honored
    1408 consistently by all browsers. However, when it is honored, it can be a
    1409 useful way to mitigate the risk of client side script accessing the
    1410 protected cookie data.

    1420 
    1421 The name of the cookie to use for sessions. This can be whatever you want (but

    1434 Django installation or be parent of that path.
    1435 
    1436 This is useful if you have multiple Django instances running under the same
    1437 hostname. They can use different cookie paths, and each instance will only see
    1438 its own session cookie.

    1446 
    1447 Whether to use a secure cookie for the session cookie. If this is set to

    1493 which Django will store session data. See :doc:`/topics/http/sessions`. When
    1494 the default value (``None``) is used, Django will use the standard temporary

     1780

     1782
     1783A dictionary containing settings for the ``restructuredtext`` markup filter from

     1801~~~~~~~~~~~~~
     1802
     1803Default: ``messages.INFO``
     1804
     1805This sets the minimum message that will be saved in the message storage.  See
     1806:ref:`message levels <message-level>` for more details.
     1807
     1808.. admonition:: Important
     1809
     1810   If you override ``MESSAGE_LEVEL`` in your settings file and rely on any of
     1811   the built-in constants, you must import the constants module directly to
     1812   avoid the potential for circular imports, e.g.::
     1813
     1814       from django.contrib.messages import constants as message_constants
     1815       MESSAGE_LEVEL = message_constants.DEBUG
     1816
     1817   If desired, you may specify the numeric values for the constants directly
     1818   according to the values in the :ref:`constants table
     1819   <message-level-constants>`.

     1824~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
     1825
     1826Default: ``'django.contrib.messages.storage.user_messages.LegacyFallbackStorage'``
     1827
     1828Controls where Django stores message data. Valid values are:
     1829
     1830    * ``'django.contrib.messages.storage.fallback.FallbackStorage'``
     1831    * ``'django.contrib.messages.storage.session.SessionStorage'``
     1832    * ``'django.contrib.messages.storage.cookie.CookieStorage'``
     1833    * ``'django.contrib.messages.storage.user_messages.LegacyFallbackStorage'``

     1846        messages.SUCCESS: 'success',
     1847        messages.WARNING: 'warning',
     1848        messages.ERROR: 'error',}
     1849
     1850This sets the mapping of message level to message tag, which is typically
     1851rendered as a CSS class in HTML. If you specify a value, it will extend
     1852the default. This means you only have to specify those values which you need
     1853to override. See :ref:`displaying messages <message-displaying>` for more details.

     1862       MESSAGE_TAGS = {message_constants.INFO: ''}
     1863
     1864   If desired, you may specify the numeric values for the constants directly

     1878
     1879Default: ``1209600`` (2 weeks, in seconds)
     1880
     1881The age of session cookies, in seconds. See :doc:`/topics/http/sessions`.

     1884
     1885SESSION_COOKIE_DOMAIN
     1886~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
     1887
     1888Default: ``None``
     1889
     1890The domain to use for session cookies. Set this to a string such as
     1891``".lawrence.com"`` for cross-domain cookies, or use ``None`` for a standard
     1892domain cookie. See the :doc:`/topics/http/sessions`.

     1896SESSION_COOKIE_HTTPONLY
     1897~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
     1898
     1899Default: ``False``
     1900
     1901Whether to use HTTPOnly flag on the session cookie. If this is set to
     1902``True``, client-side JavaScript will not to be able to access the
     1903session cookie.
     1904
     1905HTTPOnly_ is a flag included in a Set-Cookie HTTP response header. It
     1906is not part of the RFC2109 standard for cookies, and it isn't honored
     1907consistently by all browsers. However, when it is honored, it can be a
     1908useful way to mitigate the risk of client side script accessing the
     1909protected cookie data.

     1919
     1920The name of the cookie to use for sessions. This can be whatever you want (but
     1921should be different from ``LANGUAGE_COOKIE_NAME``). See the :doc:`/topics/http/sessions`.

     1929
     1930Default: ``'/'``
     1931
     1932The path set on the session cookie. This should either match the URL path of your
     1933Django installation or be parent of that path.
     1934
     1935This is useful if you have multiple Django instances running under the same
     1936hostname. They can use different cookie paths, and each instance will only see
     1937its own session cookie.
     1938

     1940
     1941SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE

     1943
     1944Default: ``False``
     1945
     1946Whether to use a secure cookie for the session cookie. If this is set to
     1947``True``, the cookie will be marked as "secure," which means browsers may
     1948ensure that the cookie is only sent under an HTTPS connection.

     1988
     1989Default: ``None``
     1990
     1991If you're using file-based session storage, this sets the directory in
     1992which Django will store session data. See :doc:`/topics/http/sessions`. When
     1993the default value (``None``) is used, Django will use the standard temporary
     1994directory for the system.
