# Other System Settings


Other System Settings
=================================
Under **Administration -> Configuration -> System Settings** you will find a few more system-wide settings.
![](../system_settings.png)
## Project Authorship
In the dropdown **Project Creation**, you can specify who can create new projects in your instance. You have a choice between system admins and all other users.
## Token Expiration
You need a token every time you want to login into your private registry from Docker. \
You can specify how many minutes it is valid.
## Robot Name Prefix
As described [here](/docs/administration-manual/system-robot-accounts.md#changing-default-robot-accounts-prefix).
## Robot Token Expiration
As explained [here](/docs/administration-manual/system-robot-accounts.md#robot-accounts-expiration).
## Make Repositories Read-Only
If you enable this feature, all users will only be able to pull images. Independent of their [permissions](/docs/user-manual/projects/manage-project-users.md#project-member-permissions), none will be able to push images, tag images, and delete repositories.
## Deployment Security
As explained [here](/docs/administration-manual/scanners/scanners-config.md#system-wide-cve-allowlist).
## Enable Webhooks
As a system admin, you must enable webhooks so that project admins can [add webhooks to their projects](/docs/user-manual/projects/configuration/webhooks/index.md).
