+Configuration options
+=====================
+``$root`` URL
+-------------
+Normally, this configuration setting is detected automatically and will
+work for both HTTP and HTTPS installations.
+
+If your installation is available on **HTTP only**, then you need to configure
+it.
+
+The value is the full URL to your installation, including a trailing
+slash::
+
+ $root = "http://homepage.example.org/semanticscuttle/";
+
+or::
+
+ $root = "http://bookmarks.example.org/";
