Over the course of editing the engine settings model, a number of engine settings entries were created under System Administration>Plugins.

Is there a way to remove multiple engine settings for a plugin? What causes this to happen?

Here's an example of the multiple settings; only one of these entries is for the current version of the plugin.

  Hi David Brown,

  It is likely you've changed id of your plugin in plugin manifest. As a result, VMS detected new dll/so binary as a new plugin and created new entry in the database for it. At the same time, old record aren't being removed even if there is no dll/so binary in the plugin folder. 

  at the moment the only way to remove it is to wipe system configuration and start it from scratch as the system doesn't support removing plugin from system administration tab. We understand this is causing some confusing and will address this problem in the future.
