New Mojoportal releases & the Web.Config file

Should I always overwrite my Web.config file with the Web.Config file in the latest release?

If yes, do I always have to manually edit all my web.config files to <machineKey configSource="machineKey.config" /> ? 

Or is there a way to override this by placing the machineKey in the user.config? (which doesnt seem to work)

Thanks again for your time - and an outstanding CMS product!

Re: New Mojoportal releases & the Web.Config file

To be more clear, I would like to place the setting

<machineKey configSource="machineKey.config" />

In the user config - and have it override the machineKey setting in the web.config.  But that doesnt work.

Yes, generally you should always use the new web.config

Unfortunately there is no way around the maintenance required for machine key, you will always need to do that manually to ensure the machine key never changes. user.config only works for the <appSettings section

Best,

Joe
