Exception: AttributeError: 'Settings' object has no attribute 'QA_SETTINGS'

[icecore2]

By following the installation guide, I had an exception:
AttributeError: 'Settings' object has no attribute 'QA_SETTINGS'

By adding the following to the settings in my main project file fixed the exception:

QA_SETTINGS = {
    'qa_messages': True,
    'qa_description_optional': False,
    'count_hits': True,
    'reputation': {
        'CREATE_QUESTION': 0,
        'CREATE_ANSWER': 0,
        'CREATE_ANSWER_COMMENT': 0,
        'CREATE_QUESTION_COMMENT': 0,
        'ACCEPT_ANSWER': 0,
        'UPVOTE_QUESTION': 0,
        'UPVOTE_ANSWER': 0,
        'DOWNVOTE_QUESTION': 0,
        'DOWNVOTE_ANSWER': 0,
    }
}
