This has to be easy ... for someone ... contact numbers

Ok new to all this and my first app is looking pretty good thanks to a few plugins and hours of trial and error . I have a simple question about the contact plugin . I'd like to create a sort of in app phone book with useful contact numbers .. a few menus and sub menus that eventually point to a phone number and a map , question is what should the final screen with the number and map be and how do i use that free contact plugin for this ... Thanks for your time Rory

so your final screen should have a link to the map plugin and a link to the call us plugin? Why not just use a menu screen for that 'final screen'? You could design a custom plugin, but why go to all that work, unless you're really concerned about the design.

If you use a simple menu as a contact page you can just link the name and information fields to nothing, and then having a menu item that is linked to the call plugin and one to the maps plugin. Ive just done something like that in my app im making. It doesnt look too bad, you can turn of scroll and take away the little indicator arrow. No one would be the wiser.

Wow simpler than I thought it seems thanks ... btw I'm old enough to remember back in the day when web pages were made in notepad and cost zillions ... then came wysiwyg and dreamweaver etc etc .... this buzztouch is defiantly a step in the right direction ... coders will always be necessary but app creation shouldn't be the domain of a few . love it thanks

My brother worked for a company back in the day that charged 30 or 40k for a basic website when having one was the domain of the elite few .. then came templates ... boom game over ! Nice while it lasted
