Hello!
I have created a new plugin, and I would like to have a configuration page for this plugin, appearing in the Tools/Options dialog.
So, for my Foo plugin, (modeling on the Homepage configuration page) I have created a:
FooConfigurationPageProvider
FooConfigurationPage
FooConfigurationComponent
FooConfigurationControl
FooConfigurationView
FooSettings.settings
I can now see my Foo configuration page appearing in the Options dialog,
but I haven't been successful in saving/restoring settings.
I have a number of questions:
1) are settings stored locally, or are they pushed to the server?
2) if to the server, what is the mechanism for this? I didn't see any tables in the database for storing settings values.
3) are there any other files I need to change (like .config files) in order to get this working?
4) Is there a way of notifying the plugin that its settings have changed, in order to refresh its view?
Any clues here would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Igor
