Title:
  Mistake in the $cfg->urlsecret manual page

Status in Mahara user manual:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I noticed on the Mahara manual page for $cfg->urlsecret, it says to
  set it to "none" where it should be "null":

  http://manual.mahara.org/en/16.04/administration/config_php.html#new-
  in-mahara-16-04-urlsecret-run-the-cron-or-upgrade-only-when-you-are-
  authorised

  "When you have a developer instance or a test server that is behind a
  firewall, you may not want to add the urlsecret every time, especially
  when you are the only once who has access to those sites. You could
  put $cfg->urlsecret = none; into the config.php files for these sites
  and circumvent the requirement of entering a secret phrase. However,
  you should not use that on a production site or any other site that is
  accessible to many people."

  In the middle there, where it says:

  $cfg->urlsecret = none;

  ...it should be:

  $cfg->urlsecret = null;

  (And there shouldn't be any quotes around the word null, because null
  is a PHP keyword.)
