+Friendica's configuration is done in two places: in PHP array configuration files and in the `config` database table.
 Database config values overwrite the same file config values.
 
 ## File configuration
 
-WARNING: some characters `?{}|&~![()^"` should not be used in the keys or values. If one of those character is required put the value between double quotes (eg. password = "let&me&in")

+This prevents your webserver from displaying your private configuration. It interprets the configuration files and displays nothing.
 
 A typical configuration file looks like this:
 
 ```php
-<?php return <<<INI
-
-; Comment line
-
-[section1]
-key = value
-empty_key =
-
-[section2]
-array[] = value0
-array[] = value1

-
-INI;
-// Keep this line
+<?php

+ */

+		// Comment line
+		'key' => 'value',
+	],
+	'section2' => [
+		'array' => ['value0', 'value1', 'value2'],
+	],
+];
 ```
 
 ### Configuration location
 
 The `config` directory holds key configuration files:
 
-- `config.ini.php` holds the default values for all the configuration keys that can only be set in `local.ini.php`.
-- `settings.ini.php` holds the default values for some configuration keys that are set through the admin settings page.
-- `local.ini.php` holds the current node custom configuration.
-- `addon.ini.php` is optional and holds the custom configuration for specific addons.
+- `defaults.config.php` holds the default values for all the configuration keys that can only be set in `local.config.php`.
+- `settings.config.php` holds the default values for some configuration keys that are set through the admin settings page.
+- `local.config.php` holds the current node custom configuration.
+- `addon.config.php` is optional and holds the custom configuration for specific addons.
 
-Addons can define their own default configuration values in `addon/[addon]/config/[addon].ini.php` which is loaded when the addon is activated.

+#### Migrating from .htconfig.php to config/local.config.php
 
 The legacy `.htconfig.php` configuration file is still supported, but is deprecated and will be removed in a subsequent Friendica release.
 
 The migration is pretty straightforward:
-If you had any addon-specific configuration in your `.htconfig.php`, just copy `config/addon-sample.ini.php` to `config/addon.ini.php` and move your configuration values.
-Afterwards, copy `config/local-sample.ini.php` to `config/local.ini.php`, move the remaining configuration values to it according to the following conversion chart, then rename your `.htconfig.php` to check your node is working as expected before deleting it.

 ### Database Settings
 
 The configuration variables database.hostname, database.username, database.password, database.database and database.charset are holding your credentials for the database connection.
 If you need to specify a port to access the database, you can do so by appending ":portnumber" to the database.hostname variable.
