   * **$dbprefix** - By default this is commented out and not used. You will note the "//" in front of this value. If you wish to use this, which is good if you have other information in the same database, uncomment this line by removing the "//" before the line.
   * **$sql_debug** - Setting this value to 1 will display additional information on screen when MySQL errors occur. It is not recommended that this value be changed from 0 unless debugging is needed as it poses a security risk.
+  * **$time_zone** - Set the time zone for your business. A list of acceptable time zones can be found at: [[http://www.php.net/timezones|http://www.php.net/timezones]]
   * **ADMIN_DIR** - If you wish to change the name of the admin directory to help boost security, you should change the directory name as well as this value to ensure the cart continues to function.
+  * **PHP_ERRORS** - This setting will toggle the display of PHP errors as they occur. It is recommend  that you keep this value set to 'true'.
+  * **BLOCK_STORE_CC** - This setting will toggle the ability to block the storing of credit card numbers within the database. If you are using a payment processor, you can set this to 'true' since there will be no need to store those details at any point. Please note that storing credit card numbers can be a liability if PCI compliance is not in place.
+  * **BLOCK_TEMPLATE_PHP** - This settings will block the ability to alter template files that contain PHP from within the admin area. It is recommended that you toggle this only as you need to make changes to template files. After the changes are made, you should consider setting the value to 'true' again.
+Once you successfully change the values, save the file and continue to the next step.
