the type of the value returned QSettings.value() may not be what is expected. pyqt reslove the issue this way
http://pyqt.sourceforge.net/Docs/PyQt5/pyqt_qsettings.html
As I have tested , the issue is still within pyside,
For example , after
QSettings.setValue("onlineParseSites",[])
I got None rather an empty list [] using
QSettings.value("onlineParseSites")
in a second launch of my application
