# Settings
## Overview
The `settings:` attribute and subsequent settings can be used to command various aspects of the functionality of Plex Meta Manager.
Examples of these settings include the ability to:
* Cache each Plex GUID and IDs to increase performance
* Create asset folders for collections so that custom posters can be stored for upload.
* Use a custom repository as the base for all `git` Metadata files.
The settings attribute and attributes can be specified individually per library, or can be inherited from the global value if it has been set. If an attribute is specified at both the library and global level, then the library level attribute will take priority.
There are some attributes which can be specified at the collection level using [Setting Details](../metadata/details/setting).
Attributes set at the collection level will take priority over any library or global-level attribute.
## Attributes
The available setting attributes which can be set at each level are outlined below:

## Cache
Cache the Plex GUID and associated IDs for each library item for faster subsequent processing. The cache file is created in the same directory as the configuration file.
<table class="dualTable colwidths-auto align-default table">
<tr>
<th>Default Value</th>
<td><code>true</code></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th>Allowed Values</th>
<td><code>true</code> or <code>false</code>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
## Cache Expiration
Set the number of days before each cache mapping expires and has to be re-cached.
<table class="dualTable colwidths-auto align-default table">
<tr>
<th>Default Value</th>
<td><code>60</code></td>
</tr>

i.e. `assets/Star Wars/poster.png` instead of `assets/Star Wars.png`
<table class="dualTable colwidths-auto align-default table">
<tr>
<th>Default Value</th>
<td><code>true</code></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th>Allowed Values</th>
<td><code>true</code> or <code>false</code>
</td>
</tr>

## Asset Depth
Specify how many folder levels to scan for an item within the asset directory<br>
* `asset_folders` must be set to `true` for this to take effect.
