My new newsstand app: Rejection! Social Network-Magazine

My new magazine was uploaded to Apple but it has rejected from them for the following point: "Newsstand was created for apps that meet the following criteria: - Are, or primarily contain content that is, periodical in nature, such as magazines, newspapers, etc. - Have frequent updates, such as daily, weekly, monthly, or quarterly. Apps with longer update periods, e.g., yearly, are better suited as Non-Renewing In-App Purchase subscription products - Provide a reading or interactive experience similar to a magazine or periodical - Are not catalogs or do not primarily contain catalog-like content However, your app is not a periodical." We build a magazine (monthly updates) dedicated to Social Network, the readers can browser the page by "curl" effect as a magazine. There are the summary with all the contents linked, we are ready also for the new april copy(it is ready here in Buzztouch)...all the details to be a magazine are already build.... At the moment we think that we was rejected because the page can not be browsed by finger as a magazine. But we have no idea how to manage this code and give readers this opportunity. Please, developers if you can support us please send your suggestions(or code). For whom solves our problem we will publish one page in the magazine with a promotion for his apps, website, activities or what he wants!....thk for helping us!

Try this, http://codecanyon.net/item/ipad-magazine-w-fallback/1611942 Need to check the licensing options, or this, turnjs.com Those should give you the native feel.

Yes, it should be quite simple, use a html doc in the v1.5 and look at the sample.html and how the sample.js is referenced. You should be able to get that to work. Also, in Xcode you need to exclude any .js files from compiling by moving it to copy bundle file. (under build as far as I remember). I found a tuto somewhere, but I will have to look if you want it.

ok, found it. How to include javascript files in your project. This works with a program called Hype, I tested this method and it works in Buzztouch with a html doc screen. Tuto here : http://system-log.tyr.org.uk/2012/02/08/using-tumult-hype-for-ios-game-titles/ and how to exclude js files from compiling here: http://www.chrisboyd.net/2011/11/about-javascript-files-and-xcode-4/ With these two tutos, you can get it working, happy reading and let me know if your stuck. I'll start another topic for others to see.

from here i'm not able to carry on....help me.. titlesWebView = [[UIWebView alloc] initWithFrame:[navController.view bounds]]; _javascriptBridge = [WebViewJavascriptBridge javascriptBridgeWithDelegate:self]; titlesWebView.delegate = _javascriptBridge; [titlesWebView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"Titles" ofType:@"html"] isDirectory:NO]]]; [navController.view addSubview:titlesWebView]; To demonstrate how the communication can work we are going to set up the scene so that once it’s loaded it calls back into the Objective-C code, which then in turn reconfigures the scene to display the right set of padlocks to the user. To talk from Objective-C to Hype open up the .html file again and add a section like the below into the <script> block in the head. Remember the ‘documentName’ we noted before when looking in the generated JS. That’s the value you need to set in HYPE.documents["documentName"], here our document is called ‘Titles’: document.addEventListener('WebViewJavascriptBridgeReady', function onBridgeReady() { WebViewJavascriptBridge.setMessageHandler(function(message) { if (message == 'setPadlocksForLevel1') { HYPE.documents["Titles"].playTimelineNamed('padlocksLevel1'); } }) }, false)

Hi, Sorry I didn't see your post from 2 days ago. Do you really need the webviewjavascriptbridge part to work ? If you just want just the Hype animation alone to work in the html doc, you can ignore thejavascriptbridge. Does your Hype doc work in the iOS simulator ?
