Hello, i hope someone can help me. I purchased the search menu plugin, i think i use it in the correct way: i selected it before download the project from bt control panel, but when i test the app from eclipse in a real device and navigate to the plugin screen it shows "Missing Plugin: The android class file for this screen was not compiled with the proyect." what happens? what can i do? Thanks!

Just to follow up (we discussed this on the chat at btmods.com) - this plugin hasn't been updated for 3.0, so it won't work for Android projects.

I was surprisingly able to get the plug-in to work on Android a little while back. Check out this forum post to see: https://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=5BA7F0D88090AACE2918968

You'd need to do some work to convert from a 2.0 plugin to a 3.0 plugin. The old format that this one was built on used activities, and the new format uses fragments.

Ok, ill try it. One more question...can i search a screen with a number as nickname?no letters, only numbers with or without decimals and "," or ".", for example: 2 or 2,1 or 2.1. I need to search screens using numbers with/without decimals as search criteria.

Thanks Chris for confirming this.. I knew that I had not been converted despite that other forum thread that suggested otherwise. @ peters are you sure that you created a 3.0 android project? I tried just yesterday and there were errors everywhere

I don't know how I would tell exactly for sure...I created the app about a month ago, and downloaded the code about 3 weeks ago. I only get one choice for downloading Android code, so I'm assuming it is 3.0. Is there a way to tell for sure?

Yeah im using self hosted and I chose 3.0 so I'm not sure why it didn't work like yours.. In the files,the android fragments don't exist either so..

I did the same than peterj: "I went to the plug-in page and downloaded the self-hosted package (even though I use the BT control panel). In that package there are a few folders for different platforms and versions. I copied files from the "source-android" folder; the xml files went into res>layout, and the java file went into src where all my other java files are" For me, Eclipse show 7 errors just in the java file copied to src folder. No errors for xml files. I'm using a BT 3.0 code download from around 1 week. I´m very interest in fix it. What can be the difference between peterj and us (me and mysps)?

I just downloaded my app again and brought it into Eclipse to see if there was something I forgot to mention. I did see 7 errors in the java file. If they are the same errors that you are seeing Agu, you may be able to fix them. One of the errors is about a "declared package" not matching. Find this error in the java file, and change where the code says "com.buzzTouch" to "com.yourAppName". For example, my app is called "falconhowto", so I changed it to "com.falconhowto". The other 6 errors are the same, "BT_appDelegate cannot be resolved". Find each one of these errors in the java file, and change the "BT" part to your app name. Again, for me, it would say "falconhowto_appDelegate". If you're unsure exactly what to call it, open a different java file and search for "delegate" - you should see an example of what it should look like. Once I fixed these 7 errors, I was able to see the search plug-in working in my emulator. These errors make sense, because the self-hosted version wouldn't know about my specific app, whereas when I download the code from the BT control panel, part of the preparation is probably setting all those values in all of the files to the right app package name.

Peter - is it a fragment or an activity?

Forgive a naive question, Chris1 - how would I tell? I got "BT_fragment..." java files and "BT_activity..." files in my project...

At the top of the .java file it should say 'extends BT_fragment' or 'extends BT_activity'.

At the top of the BTM_search.java file it says "BTM_search extends BT_fragment..."

Thanks peterj!!the same errors for me.Just now i have no computer but I'll try and comment.

Interesting. I guess it was updated for 3.0 then, but the folder name wasn't changed. I bet he updated it before the latest changes to 3.0 went into effect, which required the folder names to be set. Heck, I may have even done the update for him. Lol. Too long ago.

Yeah weird downloaded again I don't see any fragments :(

Great,it works! Thanks peterj! i did exactly what you told me to.I modified java file, 7 errors fixed, and plugin works. mysps: just follow peterj instructions.

Perfect! Thanks Peterj & Agu. The plugin should be updated with those changes :)

One more question...it is possible to change the words "start typing" in the search bar of the plugin?I'd like to write it in spanish. How can i do this?

Agu, For android I recommend you adding localization to your app. This will create all options and menus in Spanish. Check this page on how to do it. Its fairly easy http://whitebuffalomobile.com/Localization/localization.html Android Localization file: http://whitebuffalomobile.com/Localization/spanish-android.txt in the Res folder you just add a folder "values-es" with the strings.xml inside of the folder. refresh and it should be translated ok
