Can I fetch database info from config.php?

Hello.

Just this, Can I grab some database stored information from within config/config.php.

something like:

Code:

$config['language']    = 'here I fetch the data from the database table';

//instead of:

$config['language']    = "french";

thanks

Not through CI, because the config file is read before the database connection is available.
You could manually connect to the database and do a query. But I think config.php is the wrong place to do that.
Better make a model or even a hook to do that kind of thing, and keep config.php just for simple configuration values.
