Settings
 

<font color="darkgreen">When creating larger Products, what is the better logic to use for storing all your settings? Place them into the setting table so they are integrated with the forum and usergroup setting pages or create a separate table for your products settings and display in your custom admincp page?

Any pro/cons on either?

Thanks</font>

For usergroup specific options, place them in the usergroup options via bitfields.
For forum specific options, place them in the forum options via bitfields.
For all other settings, add them to the normal vBulletin Options list.

I was looking at vBAdvanced as it uses a separate table for most of its stuff. My product is large as vBA so wouldnt it be difficult to integrate it all into vB's settings and security?

Have any links for each of your suggestions? :)

I found that there is the ...

$vbulletin->bf_ugp_userpagepermissions['canxxxx']

syntax for reading perms but how to create them?

Edit: I see that this was posted 2.5 years ago but is it still compatible with 3.6.8?
