Parameters for Customizing WebHelp Responsive with Feedback Output

To customize a transformation scenario, you can edit various parameters, including the following most commonly used ones:
args.default.language
This parameter is used if the language is not detected in the DITA map. The default value is en-us.
clean.output
Deletes all files from the output folder before the transformation is performed (only no and yes values are valid and the default value is no).
fix.external.refs.com.oxygenxml (Only supported when the DITA OT transformation process is started from Oxygen XML Editor)
The DITA Open Toolkit usually has problems processing references that point to locations outside of the directory of the processed DITA map. This parameter is used to specify whether or not the application should try to fix such references in a temporary files folder before the DITA Open Toolkit is invoked on the fixed references. The fix has no impact on your edited DITA content. Allowed values: true or false (default).
use.stemming
Controls whether or not you want to include stemming search algorithms into the published output (default setting is false).
webhelp.custom.resources
The file path to a directory that contains resources files. All files from this directory will be copied to the root of the WebHelp output.
webhelp.favicon
The file path that points to an image to be used as a favicon in the WebHelp output.
webhelp.reload.stylesheet
Set this parameter to true if you have out of memory problems when generating WebHelp. It will increase processing time but decrease the memory footprint. The default value is false.
webhelp.search.japanese.dictionary
The file path of the dictionary that will be used by the Kuromoji morphological engine that Oxygen XML Editor uses for indexing Japanese content in the WebHelp pages. This indexer does not come bundled with Oxygen XML Editor or the Oxygen XML WebHelp plugin. To use it, you need to download it from http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.lucene/lucene-analyzers-kuromoji/4.0.0 and add it in the DITA_OT_DIR/plugins/com.oxygenxml.webhelp/lib directory.
webhelp.search.ranking
If this parameter is set to false then the 5-star rating mechanism is no longer included in the search results that are displayed on the Search tab (default setting is true).
webhelp.show.changes.and.comments
When set to yes, user comments, replies to comments, and tracked changes are published in the WebHelp output. The default value is no.
webhelp.sitemap.base.url
Base URL for all the loc elements in the generated sitemap.xml file. The value of a loc element is computed as the relative file path from the href attribute of a topicref element from the DITA map, appended to this base URL value. The loc element is mandatory in sitemap.xml. If you leave this parameter set to its default empty value, then the sitemap.xml file is not generated.
webhelp.sitemap.change.frequency
The value of the changefreq element in the generated sitemap.xml file. The changefreq element is optional in sitemap.xml. If you leave this parameter set to its default empty value, then the changefreq element is not added in sitemap.xml. Allowed values: <empty string> (default), always, hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, never.
webhelp.sitemap.priority
The value of the priority element in the generated sitemap.xml file. It can be set to any fractional number between 0.0 (least important priority) and 1.0 (most important priority). For example, 0.3, 0.5, or 0.8. The priority element is optional in sitemap.xml. If you leave this parameter set to its default empty value, then the priority element is not added in sitemap.xml.
