+summary: Automatically reload modules with the config
+...
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+By default Prosody does not reload modules at runtime unless instructed
+to via one of its admin interfaces. However sometimes you want to easily
+reload a module to apply new settings when the config changes.
+
+mod\_reload\_modules will reload a set list of modules every time
+Prosody reloads its config (e.g. on SIGHUP).
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+Add "reload\_modules" to modules\_enabled. Then the list of modules to
+reload using the 'reload\_modules' option in your config like so:
+
+    reload_modules = { "groups", "tls" }
+
+This would reload mod\_groups and mod\_tls whenever the config is
+reloaded. Note that on many systems this will be at least daily, due to
+logrotate.
+
+Compatibility
