Written code

Hi I was wondering where i could locate the code that has been added from me using the sub menus etc, and where the text is on the app source code to allow me to see how the image and text etc has been added..purely for own piece of mind and to see how you guys did it to set up...if you don't ask you wont learn... Cheers All Bob

BuzzTouch apps use JSON and XCode to make apps. If you would like to know how each page is built, then go to: Your Account > Applications > Show App Configuration Data. The JSON Code corresponds to what your app looks like.

Sorry, I believe I was not precise enough: On your Account, click on Applcations, then on the name of your app. Once you see the left panel with: "Upload the App's Icon Manage Core Properties etc..." Look for Show App's Configuration Data Then it will load a page with JSON inside it. Good Luck

Sorry, though you were using version 1.5. Being on 1.4, just go to XCode, and read the BT_Config.txt file in the BT_Config File in the left panel. Sorry for the confusion

No, no, no. lol. Just download the app, and open the project in XCode. That file is there.

I believe (educated guess) that it is the same in Eclipse. Otherwise, take a look at this: http://www.buzztouch.com/docs/v1.5/screen_menuList.php

Same process in BTv1.4 Android. (Sorta) source code > res > raw > config.txt But unlike BTv1.5 & BTv2.0 there's nothing to see, it's all on Buzztouch's server. Hence BTv1.4 apps must have internet access to function. Fred Fred

Download it. Use Eclipse (Android) to poke around the various files (Source Code). Fred

All your screens, all your tabs, all your settings are in one same file presumibly named BT_Config.txt (this may change). Check in there

BT_config.txt is a snapshot (and usually outdated snapshot). The config data in the control panel will contain the latest data. Fred

Thanks Fred..so the data URL that's the Buzztouch site yeah? is that where they store all the raw code for the HTML and stuff? Cause theres no evidence of what ive written in these bits anywhere in the code? how would I go about getting it so there's no Buzztouch.com etc at the top and it goes through a site of my choosing, because reading through it said that you can make more mods to the source code if I do this?? What extra would this allow me to do apart from faster speeds if there's a problem with the buzz network? Would you mind if i messaged you directly rather than having to come back here all the time? Thanks in advance.. Bob
