It was there before (skin, rights, etc) but I agree that it’s even more important now. > There are already some configurable sections at space level: Look & Feel > (Presentation, Page Elements, PanelWizard), Users & Groups (Rights: Page & > Children, Rights: Page) but they are not using the configurable class and > they are defined in > https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/master/xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-administration/xwiki-platform-administration-ui/src/main/resources/XWiki/AdminSheet.xml#L60 > having perSpace key. > > The new installed applications that have a configuration page, can't be > configured now at space level and what I'm proposing in order to ease the > way this can be achieved is to add a new boolean property perSpace to the > XWiki.ConfigurableClass class. I think I’d prefer instead to introduce a “visibility” xproperty similar to what we have in wiki Macros and wiki components. Which could be for the moment: WIKI, SPACE (later on we could maybe add some config options that are only visible at the farm level, i.e. on the main wiki). Another use case in the future could be to have user-level configuration options too (with a visibility of USER); this could be a way to reuse ConfigurableClass for both Admin UI and User Profile UI in the future. Of course this means deprecating the “configureGlobally”. > Another idea would be to create a mix between this non-existing property > and existing configureGlobally property and to create a new one with some > options: Wiki, Wiki & space, Space but this involves a lot of changes tha > might not worth the effort. I think it’s worth introducing a “visibility” xproperty.
