I am trying to use the json snippet plugin to control some custom logic (ad rotation in this case). I am not using it to duplicate screens. Here is what I pasted into the snippet keeper plugin: {"itemId":"chartboost", "itemNickname":"chartboost", "displayPercentage":"30"}, {"itemId":"revmob", "itemNickname":"revmob", "displayPercentage":"70"} And this is what shows up in the config file: {"itemId":"538E844CE1FB990FDB686CF", "itemType":"Json_snippet_keeper", "itemNickname":"ad networks", "itemId":"chartboost", "itemNickname":"chartboost", "displayPercentage":"30"}, {"itemId":"538E844CE1FB990FDB686CF", "itemType":"Json_snippet_keeper", "itemNickname":"ad networks", "itemId":"revmob", "itemNickname":"revmob", "displayPercentage":"70"}, See the itemId that the json plugin inserts is not unique? I thought these items would be nested under one json snippet keeper? What am I doing wrong? Thanks a lot!

But I think the 'generated' itemId is the Json Snippet keeper's itemId. He can explain better though... Cheers! -- Smug Comments That would be a 'Stobe' question...

I just tested your above lines (in a project hosted here at BT, not self-hosted), and it showed up in the main config.txt exactly as pasted. I did not have any itemType, itemNickname, etc in my config. -Stobe Comments Jasonr: did you delete out the default itemID before pasting your text in the snippet box?

I'll bring this to David's attention. Are you running 2.1.8? Comments ok, there might be something wrong with the self hosted version of this plugin. I'll bring this to David's attention.
