+Feature 170 "Do not specify the pluginName in ConfigurationContainer"
+===============================================================================
+
+Prior to the change it was not possible to create a second plugin in a
+separate extension. The pluginName for the configuration was set to `search`.
+The problem was that the plugin specific settings could not be fetched.
+
+The configuration in `plugin.tx_exampleextension_pluginkey.settings {..}` and
+from flexform were not fetched.
+
+Now the pluginName is not set and the ConfigurationManager checks which plugin
+is used in the current context.
+
+It is now possible to create a second plugin. For example if you want to cache
+the output of your query or the filters you specified.
+
+See :issue:`170`.
