Attributes at Block Type Level

Permalink
I'm creating a new Block for the Marketplace and I want to know if there is a way that I can set some attributes / values that automatically apply to all instances / occurrences of a block Type?

Thanks, Pete

basically what I think you want though is some variables that are constant for each block on your site, but that changes site to site right? In that case id make a simple dashboard interface that accesses the config class to set some values.
heres some docs on the config class

and an article

if you want attributes block to block, then it should just be a db column for the block, and put the form in edit/add.php
