There are a whole host of commands for Mint.. the paranoid option I don’t remember.

?paranoid doesn’t work for me! =

Open up /mint/config/db.php and add 'paranoid' => true to the config array. eg.

$Mint = new Mint (array
(
    'server'    => 'DB_HOST',
    'username'  => 'DB_LOGIN',
    'password'  => 'DB_PASSWORD',
    'database'  => 'DB_NAME',
    'tblPrefix' => 'mint_',
    'paranoid'  => true
));

(Don’t forget the comma after the tblPrefix line.)

What is the paranoid option?

It prevents anyone from viewing details about your Mint install through hooks that Shaun has built in like ?observe and #Mint:Debug. If you use the option Shaun can not provide support for you while it’s enabled. So, unless you’re very paranoid, you shouldn’t worry about it.

Ah, ok…thanks!
