Take a look to sql_update.txt file. You can easily add your own custom fields to database. Getting value from specific field: `<?php custom_data('field_sys_name'); ?>` Download plugin

You can look at “comments” plugin for more information. 2. You can look at plugins API (file app/models/Plugin.php). This class have methods Plugin::getSettings() and Plugin::setSettings(). This methods do same operations as your plugin. Maybe you can write some backend page for managing data of DB table “*_settings”. In any case, your plugin is very useful! Thanks!
