I’m able to set up basic custom manager pages in Revo, but anyone got tips on how to store and retrieve settings/options? I could create system settings for my CMP’s configuration, but I was hoping to make my own interface for this to make it more user-friendly.

Anyone got any links they could share?

Thanks!

The Parameters field allows you to enter parameters that will be available in the $_GET array when the action file executes.
Links to the CMP can look like this:
```
<a href="[[++manager_url]]?a=12&var1=2&var2=6">MyManagerPage</a>
```
```
$var1 = $_GET['var1];
```
If there are settings, you can use $modx->getOption() and $modx->setOption();

Does that help?
