On the topic let me add a note, some mods only come with a dll file which then creates the config on first startup.
This config will be created in /run/vhserver-steam/BepInEx/config/ and can or should be copied to /app/data/mods/BepInEx/config/ so it stays persistent.

I have never tried this myself, but I copied the post-installation info for that into the docs at https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/valheim/#mod-support

Maybe @BrutalBirdie can confirm if this is still the correct approach.
