LFS Project Configuration
You can use the LFS Project Configuration custom setting to enable and disable some of the features and some other settings for the Project, View Question, and Retrieve Answer user interface.
You can configure the setting for the user, profile, or organization level as per your business needs. The application takes the preceding in the following order:
