Hi,

Why would you want to have extra properties on a Page Template these settings are only used in development? Don't you mean on a page type so a content editor can set them? They are designed for this and will automatically be adjustable via the forms tab! https://docs.kentico.com/display/K81/Creating+page+types

You can get this data via use of webparts / widgets and user controls... What should these booleans do?

Just to clarify, is this what you want to do:

Page template: -has web parts. - used on multiple pages.

You would like to control visibility for these webpart on a per page option?

If this is true, you can add fields to page type (bool, checkbox) to control each webpart visibility.

Then using a macro you can get that value into a webpart visibility. i hope this helps.
