Hi, Im trying to create a section under Custom Options where the user can set certain settings for each spec they may be playing.
Currently i'm leaning towards manually entering every class/spec in a Option Group to avoid any input errors but is there a "smoother" way to do this, eg. where the user can add just the relevant spec to the Option Group? Whats the best practice way of doing something like this?
Custom option group entry for each spec

look at option group -> array -> limited array size maybe
users can add entries there

Thanks @merry plover, let me try and elaborate on what im chasing, maybe it wasn't clear from my post.
I currently have the Option group as attached in which I want to hold the specs in the game. In a best case scenario, i would like the user to be able to only add the relevant specs for them, ie. I play priest and warlock so i would only add the priest and warlock specs to the list (or maybe just some of them even). The problem with this is, how do I map whatever the user enters, to the spec ID ingame (warlock affliction is 265 eg.) to use in custom code? One example could be Holy which is both a priest and paladin spec or it could be just plain simple spelling mistakes. Alternatively i could make the user input the spec ID when creating a new entry but i think that would make it kinda not user friendly, defeating the purpose of the custom options tab. So i guess my question is if it is possible to either have a predefined list the user can choose from or alternatively if it is possible to dynamically populate a dropdown or the Option group from init code eg.?

predefined list the user can choose from
sure, just make it in there? You already have 2 spec entries, just add the rest
