+## :database_config_whitelist
+
+List of valid configuration sections which are allowed to be configured from the
+database. Settings stored in the database before the whitelist is configured are
+still applied, so it is suggested to only use the whitelist on instances that
+have not migrated the config to the database.
+
+Example:
+```elixir
+config :pleroma, :database_config_whitelist, [
+  {:pleroma, :instance},
+  {:pleroma, Pleroma.Web.Metadata},
+  {:auto_linker}
+]
+```
