  16. /**
  17. * Add the domain module setup routine.
  18. */
  19. include DRUPAL_ROOT . '/sites/all/modules/domain/settings.inc';
  20. NOTE: You may need to alter the file path above based on your
  21. site configuration. See INSTALL.txt for further help.
  22. IMPORTANT: You must add these lines to settings.php after the
  23. $databases. Normally, you should add these lines to the end of the
  24. settings.php file.
  25. NOTE: If you perform a Drupal core version upgrade, you must
  26. remove these lines from settings.php. See UPGRADE.txt for details.
