2 ideas of plugins

Hi, I have done an app with BT1.5 for iOS. It works fine Now I see that the plugin market is opened and it seems great. However I wonder if someone is working of a "contact form" plugin. I think it would be very useful for app developers. I also wonder if there is like a "page content manager" plugin. At the moment there are really great plugins but I still have to build normal pages with accordion menu, image gallery, external links with an HTML doc. It is ok but it could be better. Maybe an existing plugin could help me. Regards,

Hi Dromundi, You might want to consider explaining in greater detail just what you mean by "contact form" or "page contact manager" plugins. I have a feeling that right now if you asked 50 people what a "contact form" plugin is, you would get 50 different answers. I'm thinking that if you add more information as far as what you would expect these plugins to do / how they would function, you might find that someone is willing to build it and release it in the market. Or maybe you could work out a deal with a developer so they could build the plugin for you and then you could sell it in the market. just an idea.

@Dromundi, I'm going to finish a "contact form" sort of plugin tonight (enter details from control panel form and enter receiving email, editable xib files), and hopefully submit it for review tonight, like @parker said tell us a little more? Cheers, David https://buzztouchmods.com

@MrDavid, Really looking forward to that one! I've had apps apps knocked back from apple for using HTML forms rather than native buttons etc. Sounds great! Cheers Darrel

Thanks for your answer. Yes of course I can provide more details. About the contact form, this would be a screen where the user can indicate his first name, last name, phone number or even dates for example and then click on a button "send". The information he provided would then be sent directly by email to a defined address (but I don't know if this is possible). Otherwise by clicking on "send" it would open the mail native application with a predefined message using the information the user filled in the form, then the user has only has to send the message in the email native app of the iPhone. About what I called a "page content manager", I mean that we have plugins to make menus or displays videos. But sometimes I just need to have a screen with text and images. Of course it has to be done in a nice ways with some features like accordions (to hide/unhide information), an image that if the user taps on it becomes bigger, put some external (or even better internal) links. I am not sure if there is a plugin who can do it, maybe "blog Pro" plugin by PSMDanny to some extent. @MrDavid :That seems very promising!
