Editing buildout.cfg in Plone from a browser
I am editing a website using the Plone 4 CMS. The Plone instance I am currently using is hosted by a server to which I don't have access (i.e. I can't FTP this server and edit PHP files).
Although I don't own the server which is hosting this website, I would like to access the buildout.cfg file. Is there a way to edit this file by just logging in on my Plone website, or do I need to have the credentials to manipulate the whole instance of the site with FTP?
When I log in, I can go to a page called Site Setup (screenshot provided). Can I perhaps solve my problem from this page?
You can't. The buildout.cfg file is used for installing / building your application. So, when you are in Site setup you already are using the running application you want to reconfigure.
You will edit your buildout.cfg then you will run ./bin/develop rb to rebuild it, then you will (re)start the instance of your application. This is when, for example, you will see new add-ons available for activating them from Site setup / Add-ons (the add-ons you added in eggs / zcml / versions sections of your buildout.cfg).
