Hi there 👋
Love your work!
I was trying to setup the Unsplash Background provider but when trying to do so using the environment variables from the docs it just seems to disable the Background option completely.
Maybe i was just using it wrong?
I was looking through the code and could find any reference to it either.

I am aware that the docs state that not everything can be set via environment variables, but maybe this should just be removed from the docs.

NVM Figured it out 🤦‍♂️
If you are getting stuck with this, read through the paragraph here:
https://vikunja.io/docs/config-options/#configuration-options
Example:

VIKUNJA_BACKGROUNDS_PROVIDERS_UNSPLASH_ENABLED=true
VIKUNJA_BACKGROUNDS_PROVIDERS_UNSPLASH_ACCESSTOKEN=Vikunja<3Token123
...

Glad you figured it out!

The docs are auto-generated based on the sample config, but the generation does not work for all cases. I have it on my list to improve this but it's not a priority right now.
