Thank you for your interest in Gradle!
This feature request is in the backlog of the relevant team, but this area of Gradle is currently not a focus one, so it might take a while before it gets implemented.
There is no way to set this up from the user side right now. The enterprise plugin is the only plugin for which this is implemented (hardcoded, to be precise).
@ov7a you don't think it's a bit unfair to plugin authors and users? hm :/ okay. Thank you in any case for your help
@sgammon I understand how you feel, and I'm not happy about this situation too.

another day, another user is confused because Gradle Plugin Portal prefers its own plugins with capabilities not granted to others (in an ecosystem they control -- a sign of monopolistic behavior, I might add)
Expected Behavior
Some plugins, for example the Gradle Enterprise Plugin, accurately show on the Plugin Portal when they are settings-time plugins:
Current Behavior
It is unclear how other plugins can trigger this UI
Context
We are the authors of a settings-time plugin (the Buildless plugin), but our page shows regular installation instructions which can confuse users.
