Project Configuration in Plugin - Settings Apply Globally, Not Per Project
Answered
Hey community, I want to build a project where the project settings differentiate. I followed the docs and try to use project settings (projectConfigurable) inside my plugin.xml, but I turns out, that my settings are always the same for every project. Did I misunderstand something, I thought the configuration would be unique per project? My settings are marked as project settings in the settings windows.

It depends on how you save your settings. You're probably using a PersistentStateComponent. Make sure the XML is actually stored in a project's .idea folder. Also make sure to autowire the project into your Configurable and use that to retrieve your config.
You can use my project https://gitlab.com/ppiag/intellij_gitlab_pipeline_monitor/-/tree/master/src/main/java/de/sist/gitlab/pipelinemonitor/config?ref_type=heads as an example, see PipelineViewerConfigApp and PipelineViewerConfigProject. I can't guarantee that it's 100% the right way to go but it works ;-)
In addition to what Simon wrote, if the problem is still not solved, please share the code of all related classes and related plugin.xml entries.
