 By default, this is the `custom/` directory in the current working directory when running Gitea.
 It will also look for its configuration file _`CustomConf`_ in `$(CustomPath)/conf/app.ini`,
 and will use the current working directory as the relative base path _`AppWorkPath`_.
-The static files will be served from _`StaticRootPath`_ which defaults to the _`AppWorkPath`_.
 
 These values, although useful when developing, may conflict with downstream users preferences.
