What is the preferred method for adding custom settings to our store? I see there is a table called ac_StoreSettings that seems to somehow be mapped to properties in the StoreSettingsManager. Is there a way to add our own properties to this and map them to the table? Otherwise, I'm thinking of using the ac_CustomFields table.

You can modify the StoreSettingsManager class if you want to do things exactly the way Able does. They have some efficiencies built into the instance that might benefit a high traffic site.

I take a shorter route that doesn't necessary possess the same efficiencies but is also much easier/quicker to implement. Here's an example static class I make and throw in the /Code/ folder:

Code:

using AbleMods.Signifyd;
using CommerceBuilder.Common;
using CommerceBuilder.Stores;
using CommerceBuilder.Utility;

namespace AbleMods
{
    public static class CustomSettings
    {
        #region Signifyd
        public static SignifydOperatingMode SignifydOperatingMode
        {
            get { return (SignifydOperatingMode) CustomSettings.SignifydOperatingModeId; }
            set { CustomSettings.SignifydOperatingModeId = (int) value; }
        }

        public static int SignifydOperatingModeId
        {
            get { return AlwaysConvert.ToInt(GetValue("SignifydOperatingModeId")); }
            set { SetValue("SignifydOperatingModeId", value.ToString()); }
        }

        public static string SignifydLiveApiKey
        {
            get { return GetValue("SignifydLiveApiKey"); }
            set { SetValue("SignifydLiveApiKey", value); }
        }

        public static string SignifydTestApiKey
        {
            get { return GetValue("SignifydTestApiKey"); }
            set { SetValue("SignifydTestApiKey", value); }
        }

        public static string SignifydApiUrl
        {
            get { return GetValue("SignifydApiUrl");  }
            set { SetValue("SignifydApiUrl", value); }
        }

        public static bool SignifydTestMode
        {
            get { return AlwaysConvert.ToBool(GetValue("SignifydTestMode"), true);  }
            set { SetValue("SignifydTestMode", value.ToString()); }
        }

        public static bool SignifydDebugLogging
        {
            get { return AlwaysConvert.ToBool(GetValue("SignifydDebugLogging"), false); }
            set { SetValue("SignifydDebugLogging", value.ToString()); }
        }
        #endregion

        #region helper methods
        private static string GetValue(string key)
        {
            StoreSettingsManager settings = AbleContext.Current.Store.Settings;
            return settings.GetValueByKey(key);
        }

        private static void SetValue(string key, string value)
        {
            StoreSettingsManager settings = AbleContext.Current.Store.Settings;
            settings.SetValueByKey(key, value);
            settings.Save();
        }
        #endregion
    }
}
