v1.5 to 2.0 - Unable to load content - No home screen menu, but tabs still work. STUCK :S

I'm having some serious trouble getting my app off the ground in 2.0. I originally built one on 1.5, which is now on iTunes and doing well. We obviously want to upgrade to 2.0, and was looking forward to getting in and rebuilding the app from scratch, and making some much needed changes. The problem is that I can't even get the damn menu to work. I've setup a tabbed layout (3 tabs), and they seem to work and show labels. I have a menu button screen linked to the home tab, but nothing shows up in the content area. Even when I use the custom URL plugin for the second tab, it just displays nothing. I can switch between tabs, but thats it... other than being able to change the background image. I'm really frustrated and confused. I also can't pull in any images via URL, I can only seem to change them when embedded. Really odd... Anyway... I really need some help getting this app converted so I can also launch it on Android. Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

I have 3 tabs setup. I would like first to display a grid of buttons, the second to display a url, and the third to be a simple menu list. Smoke Em on iOS is free for download, if you would like to see how it is currently setup on v1.5. I'm trying to duplicate that to 2.0, and have even tried going the self hosted route to get this done. So far no success at all. I don't know how to explain it properly I;m sure, but its like the content are is not working. The app in Xcode simulator just looks empty. I can send screenshots if you can help...

So, tab 1: Menu (Buttons) - I've done this in BTv2.0 tab 2: Custom URL - May not be possible tab 3: Menu (list) - I've done this in BTv2.0 tab 1 & tab 3: Check that you refreshed your build. I'm not iOS so I'll let you figure out the correct terminology. Creating Menu (Buttons) has been done, so just clean > build Fred

I figured out it was because I didn't have the BT_Plugins folder moved over into my Xcode. Duh. Sorry for the bother.

Were you able to use the Custom Url Screen in a tab?

Yes I was. Works great. I'm having other trouble now. How do I easily feed xml content into an RSS reader... I'm looking into a joomla extension right now...

Never done that, so search Forum or Google. Fred
