+
+## Configuration
+
+After installing the plugin, you can customize its behavior by editing the `config.php` file located in `wp-content/plugins/simple-otel/`.
+
+### Example `config.php`
+
+Here is an example configuration for the `config.php` file:
+
+```php
+<?php
+// Configuration for Simple Otel plugin
+// Add your configurations here
+
+// Set default values using environment variables or fallback to manual configuration
+$otel_service_name = getenv('OTEL_SERVICE_NAME') ?: 'default-service-name';
+$otel_exporter_otlp_endpoint = getenv('OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT') ?: 'http://localhost:4317';
+
+// Apply configurations
+if (isset($GLOBALS['tracer'])) {
+    $GLOBALS['tracer']->setAttribute('service.name', $otel_service_name);
+    $GLOBALS['tracer']->setAttribute('otel.exporter.otlp.endpoint', $otel_exporter_otlp_endpoint);
+}
+?>
+```
+
+### Explanation
+
+- **Service Name**: Set the name of the service as it will appear in your observability platform. It uses the `OTEL_SERVICE_NAME` environment variable if set; otherwise, it defaults to `default-service-name`.
+- **OTLP Endpoint**: Specify the endpoint where the OpenTelemetry Collector is running. It uses the `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT` environment variable if set; otherwise, it defaults to `http://localhost:4317`.
+
+You can add more configuration options as needed. The plugin will include this file and apply the configurations when it initializes.
+
