Pluging: how to use them

Hi, it's been a long time since I've worked on my app and I found a lot of great news; I want to use the "Menu Buttons" plugin to set my home screen menu with just icons instead of texts. The problem is that I don't understand how to use plugins in my project: should I download in Xcode and set by code? Can I create my icon page by my control panel? Thanks

You can icons by clicking on the name of the row, and then adding a icon / icon URL.

You use plugins just like you use screens in BTv1.5. The server administrator installs the plugin. The Control Panel user, uses the plugin. For buttons read MySkylla's Guide to Buzztouch. How to found in MySkylla's Guide to Buzztouch. www.myskylla wordpress.com Fred

Thanks guys, you were very helpful. @Fred: great site! I bookmarked immediately! I've uploaded BT-server successfully but now I have a great issue to solve cause I miss the server name in my BT.com control panel! so I'm not able to download the code from my server to Xcode. I don't understand what's going on but I suspect that it's a bug. Moreover I tried to contact BT staff via gmail but haven't heard anything yet. so I'm quite desperate. Anyway I uploaded the plugin in my BT server so your instructions were absolutely right. Thanks again Marco

'cause I miss the server name in my BT.com control panel!' Not sure what you mean by this. Fred

Stephen, sorry to bother but I have a problem more. I updated IP and HOSTNAME in registration key form, set a secret and entered the registration key number and secret in Server Settings but it gives me error as something went wrong. I double checked everything and tried to download the code. It gives me the possibility but it takes definitely too much time packaging (after about 10 minutes I gave up). Any idea? Thanks in advance

Add plugin to your project? Do you mean add plugin to the server Or do you mean that you wish to use a plugin on your source code? Fred

There's a Custom plugin screen in BTv1.5 that has nothing to do with the Plugins for BTv2.0 The screen apparently works for iOS. I haven't used the screen because I'm Android. Search the Forum for additional help. Fred
