Feature request: Allow custom override of system constants
Reported by dleffler | January 24th, 2015 @ 06:47 PM | in User issues
Though we've alluded to being able to override system constants within the theme, we do not load them prior to setting all other constants. IF we want to be able to override system constants (say like use a specific jquery version) we would need to load them earlier in the chain.
- though you could set them in overrides.php which is loaded first, that file is overwritten by an upgrade
- we can NOT store a custom config within a theme folder, since the system doesn't know what the theme is until AFTER loading/setting the system constants

Correction, the overrides.php file is ONLY created/written on an initial installation and NOT an upgrade...therefore it is the ideal place to place custom system contants/defines such as a different jquery script version, etc...
