    :shortDescription: Preset TypoScript constants for sites without site sets

    Preset TypoScript constants. Will be included in the constants section of all
    TypoScript **records**. Takes no effect in sites using :ref:`Site sets <t3coreapi:site-sets>`.

..  attention::

    ..  versionchanged:: 13.1

    This file takes no effect in sites that use :ref:`Site sets <t3coreapi:site-sets>`.
    This file works for backward compability reasons only in installations that depend
    on TypoScript records only.

    Provide settings in your :ref:`Site settings definitions <t3coreapi:site-settings-definition>`
    in your site set. TypoScript constants that have to be loaded globally
    can be loaded via :ref:`ExtensionManagementUtility::addTypoScript <t3tsref:extdev-always-load>`.
