# Configuration
There's almost nothing to configure. `plugins/Chest/config.yml` holds one value, and you shouldn't touch it:
```yaml
version: 1 # DO NOT TOUCH!!!
```
That's how Chest knows whether it needs to update your files when you upgrade.
Everything that matters lives in the loot tables themselves.
## Where loot tables live
Each one is its own file in `plugins/Chest/loot_tables/`, named after the table. A file holds:
- The display name shown in the menu
- The item used as its icon
- The items in it, each with a weight
Chest ships an `example.yml` so you have something to look at.
## Editing them
Use `/chest` and the menu. It's what the menu is for, and hand-editing these files is easy to get wrong because the items are stored in Minecraft's own serialised form rather than as plain text.
If you do edit them directly, or restore some from a backup, pick up the changes with:
```
/chest reload
```
Otherwise Chest loads them at startup and saves automatically whenever you change something in the menu.
