$u5showlinkofactivelanguageinmetanavi='no';
$u5allowbasicauthtoprotectedfilesindirr='no';
if(!function_exists('BACKENDexec')){function BACKENDexec() { echo'<script>alert("BACKENDTEST")</script>'; }};

if(!function_exists('INTRANETORDERPWexec')){function INTRANETORDERPWexec() { echo'<script>alert("IORDERTEST")</script>'; }};

Case sensitive! The preceding if-clause is mandatory! The respective function is executed more than once during the access. These functions are useful to set IP-restrictions.

Additional config.php parameters if logins shall use SAML federation

Is your u5CMS installation up-to-date and ready for this functionality?

For the functionality described on the page at hand, make sure you are using a current u5CMS version. You'll find the version number by surfing to your website and switching your browser to show the HTML source code. At the very bottom of the source code you'll find a line like this:

<!-- This site runs with u5CMS version 12.4.3 from https://yuba.ch/u5cms -->

If there is no such line or no version number or one lower than V8.3.3, see the following instructions:

u5CMS — How to update an existing installation (version 4 and above)

These update instructions are for u5CMS versions 4 and above. For versions below 4 read this!

On your server, go to the files of your old (current) u5CMS installation and copy config.php to config.old.php
Download the ZIP-File , unzip it and delete the file favicon.ico
Further, delete all contents in folder r EXCEPT runonce.php
Transfer the remaining files and folders from the ZIP file over the existing installation (FTP upload)
Now, on your server, copy the database connection parameters $host $username $password $db from config.old.php to config.php
If there are other dedicated settings in config.old.php, set the same in config.php (compare parameter by parameter)
You must now log in to the backend of your (now updated) u5CMS installation via https://urltoyouru5cmsfrontend/u5admin and open a css-object (e. g. csslayout) in PIDVESA
