Wrong sitename and description on Friendica Directory https://dir.friendica.social/

[Matteo]

Apparently this variable is totally ignored in docker-composer.yml (both in fresh install and later on re-runs):

FRIENDICA_SITENAME

The result is that the site's name results "Friendica Social Network".

If I change it in admin panel, it starts being the new one i.e. "My own copy of Friendica site", but on the other hand:

• in https://dir.frienda.social the name is always the old one
• there's no way to see the descripion
• even though I disable the global directory, it gets enabled again (I delete the global directory, I save the admin page, and then it's again there).

How to fix these?

FRIENDICA_SITENAME

I'm unable to reproduce the FRIENDICA_SITENAME issue :-/

I deleted the config config.sitename in the database and removed it from the local.config.php and just changed the environment variable and the correct title appears.

Even if I overwrite the sitename in the admin panel (it is saved into the database which is of course a bug), the environment variable still stands...

There's no way to see the description

What do you exactly mean?

global directory gets enabled again

If you delete the "global directory" entry, the default value will be set again (https://dir.friendica.social), which is some kind of unwanted behavior I guess.

I will address both found issue in the Friendica upstream.
