Hi Team, I have created a Plugin in buzz touch by plugin creator tool. This is my First Plugin. I just register Plugin Name and download Self Hosted Version. My idea behind this Plugin, is to create a Drop Down list containing more screens like Menu Simple (But shows like a Combo Box). I updated config and readme.txt files. Also made changes in source-android package and source-ios package. But I have no idea about the changes in index.php and save_JSON.php files. I haven't any knowledge of PHP. Kindly Suggest. Any assistance rendered will be appreciated. Rakesh

Hi @Rakesh, You're actually almost done! The index.php file is where you give the user the ability to configure any options for your plugin. If you're not quite sure what to put here, I'd go ahead and upload it anyway, and then ask the buzztouch team for help. I'm sure when they review your plugin they'll be able to make suggestions. To upload your plugin, just do this: * Make sure you have provided an icon * Make sure you have provided some screenshots * Make sure all the information you want people to know about the plugin is in your Readme.txt file * Make sure you have filled in the info in the config.txt file * Zip everything up into the same package that you downloaded Now head back into your account, Click on Plugins and then click on the plugin you created. Click "Manage/Update" plugin, and then the link to upload the plugin. That's it! It'll then go into review! Hope this helps a bit! Mark

I think the upload system might be down right now. I tried to upload one a few min ago and kept getting the same error. @Rakesh This is what you need to read. You just need to be able to edit HTML, no PHP scripting required to manipulate those files. Notepad++ (and that plug-in sounds interesting!) http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=61A19811BADC9373C0AC264&command=isSearching&currentPage=1&topicTitle=config&createdBy=&repliedBy=&minViews=-1&maxViews=-1&minReplies=-1&maxReplies=-1&forumCategory=

Thanks for Help. I am very near to upload my first plugin. I want to check its functionality before upload in buzz-touch control panel. So I just used this in BT server where it is working good. Now I used this plugin in a application. After download in both ios and android , all things are working fine except one, the name of appDelegate file is shown with previous project name (like <oldprojectname>_appDelegate). i used it while i am working on the plugin before. It should be come with new project name in which i used this plugin. So I have to manually upate this file. Tell me, how this file will be automatically update like other files. I am waiting for reply because much hurry to upload this plugin. Any assistance rendered will be appreciated. Rakesh

This Problem occurs in both android and ios.

excellent, curious to see what you have cooking. this one caught me too when i first tried to make plug-ins. you just need to make the appdelegate lines look like this before you zip up the source code: BT_appDelegate so replace myprojectname_appDelegate with BT_appDelegate the API will replace "BT" with "myprojectname" whenever you package up the source code to download it.

Thanks Atrain , I have done this and also then checked in my self hosted control panel. It works fine. Also I uploaded this plugin in buzztouch control panel for approval. Rakesh

excellent, love the sound of that. I've got market credit so make me spend it! Were you able to modify the index.php to use the CP to feed JSON to your plug-in? If not David has posted some excellent guides recently that will be a big help. I can find the link if you need.
