Are plugin 'settings' per player or the whole plugin?

Basically I want to know if plugin:SetSetting will save data just for one player or if it’s for the whole plugin.

For example, lets say the code plugin:SetSetting('ClickedButton', true) runs whenever a player clicks the plugin button in the toolbar. Player A clicks the button but player B does not. If I ran plugin:GetSetting('ClickedButton') on player B’s side, would it give true (plugin saves globally) or nil (no data - plugin saves locally)?

Also, if it does save locally, what would be the best way to save it globally? - If there is a way

Settings are local for each developer, not for the whole project.

So the only work around would be using some 3rd party data store?

You could save “settings” as attributes in the workspace. Instead of plugin:GetSetting use ServerStorage:GetAttribute
