Creating admin options for products

[nickh]

When creating or editing a product's options at
Admin CP > vBulletin Options > vBulletin Options > Some Product
must the product's XML file be edited by hand, or is there a GUI tool available?

Thanks,
Nick

If you aren't comfortable editing the xml manually you could always export it after you make the changes. Everything tied to that products installation xml will be exported.

ACP -> Plugins & Products -> Manage Products
Click products dropdown and select Export

Oh, I misread this, I thought you meant making changes to the values after install. I don't know if a GUI tool for editing the xml.

Enable debug mode by adding this to your config.php:
$config['Misc']['debug'] = true;

Thanks for the suggestion, but could you explain how that will help with respect to my original question?

Do it and go back into vBulletin Options...

Ah, nevermind. I just looked in
vBulletin Options > vBulletin Options > My Product
and see that there are "Edit", "Delete", and "Add Setting" links to modify the product's options page.

Thanks!

What table are these options saved in?

setting

But normally you don't ever have to touch this.

[Dismounted]

What are you trying to do? As Andreas said, you don't need to directly touch those values.

I want to append banned IPs with an SQL...

Be aware that there may be caches you have to rebuild. Not 100% sure if there is one for banned IPs.

There is - the vBulletion Options datastore.

-> build_options()
