I'd like to put together a document that breaks settings down into three categories: Things you can change at run-time (e.g. a middleware) without breaking anything. Things you can change at run-time as long as you're careful and trigger re-loading, clear a cache, or dance through some other hoop. It's OK if this requires reading the source.

Jun 30, 2011 · AFAIK, the Django settings are supposed to be immutable. There are multiple reasons for this, the most obvious being that Django is not aware of the server's execution model (prefork / multi-threaded). Also, you can't load the settings themselves from a Django model because the settings need to be loaded before you can use anything in the ORM.
If we document any settings as "safe to change at runtime", we'd better also document that changing settings at runtime (even the otherwise "safe" ones) is not safe in a multi-threaded hosting environment (or concurrent requests can easily get the wrong setting value).

Django settings¶ A Django settings file contains all the configuration of your Django installation. This document explains how settings work and which settings are available. The basics¶ A settings file is just a Python module with module-level variables. Here are a couple of example settings:
The command instead uses the settings specified at the shell variable DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE instead of the dynamic settings. Kind of pesky to have to create a separate settings file to get control of this sort of thing. Could also be part of a larger problem -- that collectstatic cannot (easily) be used without the ManagementUtility command.
