These settings are all disabled by default because they make Lifeboat more complicated to use. However, they do each have a purpose, and so this is where you can enable these settings.

Allow temporary SSH Keys -- Allows saving a connection without selecting a SSH Key. You will need to select a SSH Key each time you connect to the server. This is cumbersome, but keeps the SSH Key out of Lifeboat.db which may be desirable for a higher security environment.

Enable advanced Web App options -- Toggles the environment variables editor and advanced options tabs on the Web App view. These tabs can provide more control over web app behavior, but aren't necessary for most cases.

Manual SSL tools -- Toggles the Manual SSL tools

Show more details when connecting -- Displays more specific status updates while connecting. Provides a little more feedback as to what Lifeboat is doing.

Write environment variable for deployment DateTime -- Lifeboat will write an environment variable containing the Date and Time (in SQLDateTime format). The environment variable is named LB_Deploy. Optionally, you can identify yourself by leaving your username as well. The key for that will be LB_User if enabled.
