Having read through this discussion Config Bootstrap Options, and settled on using the method described on nettuts here, I've got myself a base build for EE with all my usual addons etc. That's all working very nicely, with one annoying exception.
Setting site_name in config seems to have no effect what so ever!
$config['site_name'] = "Base ExpressionEngine Install";
Is there anything I'm doing wrong, or does this just not work? I've tried clearing the cache via the CP, but that made no difference.
These are just stand-alone sites, not MSM.
Here is the rest of my config file for reference:
<?php
if ( ! defined('EXT'))
{
exit('Invalid file request');
}
