Static pages sync: Allowing specific private categories to be synced

Is there a way to modify site settings in a plugin? I’m 99% sure there isn’t, but I’d just like to confirm that.

Do you just want to change the value of site settings? Just do SiteSetting.whatever='new value. Or do you want to change something about them?

@NateDhaliwal

A possible use case I’m looking at is to the include a list of protected categories to a setting such that it’s easier for the admin to include/exclude them.

Don’t you just want to add a setting for that? Just add to config/settings.yml? something like

config/settings.yml

If that’s what you want, then using rake plugin:create[plugin-name] will create the settings file for you, complete with example.

Or maybe I don’t understand your question.
