Custom Site properties

Hello,
Is there any recommended place to set custom site properties to be accessed by controllers and externals?
I noticed that the default.site file has an InternalProperties element defined but it's not editable from the UI.

Hello,

Please suugest what kind of custom properties.

bmazum,
Thanks for your question. For example, we have some web services that our livesite components will be consuming.
Different sites will be running on the same runtime instance, but each one may need to call a different webservice (with a different URL).
So these URLs need to be configured on a per-site basis.

You could add a ConfigurationListener to the web.xml of the LSDS application and in that class load your own properties file. You could either load a different property file or have a single property file that has separate sections based on the environments in which it may be run. Either way you'd check a jvm argument that is set different for each app server environment.

Also looks through the samples which have a properties solution.
