[Qgis-user] Referer

[Jonathan Moules]

Hi Christoph,

What do you mean by "where will this referer be displayed"? I'm guessing 
this is the HTTP referer in which case it's probably going to be sent as 
a HTTP Header with every request WMS/XYZ request that QGIS is making to 
the server (what I'd expect anyway). I guess this is useful because for 
"security" reasons some servers only respond to specific referers. The 
server operator will see it in their logs but otherwise it's going to be 
invisible.

Cheers,

Jonathan
