-================================
-Using third party PHP components
-================================
-
-Nextcloud uses some third party PHP components to provide some of its functionality. These components are part of the software package and are contained in the **/3rdparty** folder.
-
-Managing third party parameters
--------------------------------
-
-When using third party components, keep the following parameters in mind:
-
-* **3rdpartyroot** -- Specifies the location of the 3rd-party folder. To change the default location of this folder, you can use this parameter to define the absolute file system path to the folder location.
-
-* **3rdpartyurl** -- Specifies the http web path to the 3rdpartyroot folder, starting at the Nextcloud web root.
-
-An example of what these parameters might look like is as follows:
-
-::
-
-  <?php
-
-  "3rdpartyroot" => OC::$SERVERROOT."/3rdparty",
-  "3rdpartyurl"  => "/3rdparty",
