I visited the "How To's" section for help on how to install a plugin and found this: "The Manage Plugins screen (admin control panel) is used to see what plugins are installed and to install new plugins or to remove existing plugins." I am missing something obvious it seems, but for the life of me I can't find the "Manage Plugins screen" or the "admin control panel" this document refers to. I am using the buzztouch web site (not self hosted). I appreciate any pointers in the right direction. Thanks in advance.

Select your app from the middle of the screen, then select screens and actions on the left. I believe this is what you are looking for. You should see "Manage Screens and Actions for <application name> in an orange box at the top, under the buzztouch header. Let me know if this helps.

If thats the one I'm thinking of than its more of a "hack" than a plugin. Yes it has plugin components but its not a pure plugin. Therefore, it wont show up in the plugins area of your BT self hosted or bt not self hosted.

MadRod Aspiring developer Posts: 1853 Reg: Apr 12, 2012 Lisbon 27,930	10/17/12 12:23 PM (13 years ago) I've got it installed as a plugin in self hosted and it shows up in the plugins. The only way around it, if not self hosted, is to manualy add it to your project and link it. Can't help you there. Cheers.

I'm sure he would be glad to help. I'm guessing you download the .h .m file, drag and drop it into your xcode project and read further directions on his website. It should be fairly simple.
