Hi,
Currently, I am focusing on designing the UI for the admin panel. Please find a very basic version of UI in my blog post.
Of course, different fields will require different types that I did not consider in this draft. But the main purpose of it is to get me started, and give me a basic idea of how I will go about constructing it.
I have not really starting digging into code lately. My approach always has been to work on the UI before coding.
Thanks!

Zeeshan,
I am previous post I wrote: ------ About the UI, I see some options:
1. a central panel where a user sets up her preferences (in the same style than an admin uses phpMyAdmin/setup to maintain config.inc.php)
2. choices made by the user during her use of phpMyAdmin are remembered automatically
3. the settings that can be remembered are marked with some visual clue that enables a user to change them.
I tend to prefer #2 but am wondering about its performance impact. ---------
So, have you decided what kind of UI you'll offer for the user preferences?

How would you decide where ever user wants to change settings. If I change browsing to full text mode, do I want it only once, every time for this table or every time for all tables?
Hi,
Well, there are a certain set of preferences that are under consideration to be permanently stored. The current complete list of these settings can be found on my weblog.
I am not totally sure about "full text mode." Are you referring to "print mode."
Thanks!

Browse a table, click "Options" then "Full texts".
Thanks!

Hi,
I think if the user changes to full-text mode this setting will be permanently stored. If we want to store the setting only for the respective table, it may enrich the user experience but I am afraid it may yield performance issues. There are databases containing millions of tables, which is of course possible due to the excellent quality of MySQL database server, remembering settings for all these tables might be a huge task.
May be I am over thinking. But I won't be afraid to give it a try.
Thanks!
