This module enables Kentico developers to add custom settings to Kentico which can be managed by Site Administrators. The settings are created in the Development section of the Site Manager, and will appear in the Settings Section of the Site Manager. The idea is to make custom code flexible and configurable.
Kentico CMS Custom Settings Module - Settings Key
Features
- Add custom Settings Categories.
- Add custom Settings Keys to custom Settings Categories.
- Uses Kentico CMS’ built in features including editing settings keys, settings key data types, inheritance, and more.
Issues / Caveats
So far, there are no known issues, but there are a few caveats:
- I don’t think that the different Load Generation settings are entirely taken into account. I would probably just set it to First Generation for now. I will be posting on the internals of this module soon, which may shed some light on this, stay tuned…
- Help topics are still pointing at the original topics from the module I started with (countries).
- Not production tested!
Installation
Installation is simple. Just follow the directions in the readme.
The Future of this Module
Right now this is the only place the module is hosted, but if people contact me with bug fixes (or just reports) or enhancements, I will try to incorporate those into the module in a timely manner. My goal is to get this on GitHub, but I want to play around with Git a little more before I start trying merge branches and such.

[...] Custom Settings Module for Kentico CMS [...]
Hi,
Good to see the custom seetings .But i feel there is little easy to achieve the goal.
You just need to the following
1.Insert a record into CMS_SettingsCategory
like custom settings-
2.Insert records into CMS_SettingsKey
with CustomCategoryId obtained by above insertion
so using this method you can not only add one kind but can insert many more categories.
Sorry ,if am overunderstood,i just gave tought and it worked for me..
Thanks

Do you have any other modules to share?
I’m just evaluating Kentico and would love some real world examples from a fellow developer!
I’m used to Sitefinity but have decided to jump ship for numerous reasons!
Unfortunately, I don’t have any I can share since most of the stuff we build is tailored to client needs. But maybe I will look into building a simple module to demonstrate the features available. I think you will love Kentico! Good luck!
