<PluginSettings> in config.xml

[reven]

sub i was looking around the config.xml file and noticed this

Quote[/b] ]<!-- plugins should write their settings into the PluginSettings node below. This ensures they'll be retained during an upgrade -->
&lt;PluginSettings&gt;
&lt;SomeExamplePlugin&gt;
&lt;AreaCode&gt;90210&lt;/AreaCode&gt;
&lt;/SomeExamplePlugin&gt;
&lt;/PluginSettings&gt;

now should i, and others, start putting our custom plugins tags inside thost tags? since in the past there have been problems with plugins settings dissappearing when installing a new version of gbpvr. or is this just something that has been in there for ages and no one ever used, and just should be ignored?

Its been there for quite a while. Yes, you should put settings in here to ensure they're retained.

ok thanks, its funny how ive never seen any plugins use this.

I've never really said much about it, so I'm sure most developers are not familar with it.

I've often wondered, but since no one else was using it I didn;t either. Guess I'll change.
