-#### Custom kafka properties:
-
-In addition to the above settings, custom Kafka properties can be explicitly set
-for `publisher` and `subscriber`.
-In order to be acknowledged, these properties need to be prefixed with the
-`KafkaProp-` prefix and be formatted using camel case, as follows: `KafkaProp-yourPropertyValue`
-
-For example, if you want to set the `auto.commit.interval.ms` property for
-consumers, you need to configure this property as `KafkaProp-autoCommitIntervalMs`.
-
-**NOTE**: custom Kafka properties will be ignored when the relevant subsection is
-disabled (i.e. `kafka.subscriber.enabled` and/or `kafka.publisher.enabled` are
-set to `false`).
-
-The complete list of available settings can be found directly in the kafka website:
-
-* **Publisher**: https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#producerconfigs
-* **Subscriber**: https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#consumerconfigs
