changing button function to appoxee inbox link (iOS)

i need to change a button's function in my bottom tab. i think its here that i need to change the code(bt_config.txt) {"itemId":"729F6CF0215DDF7E2DFFB96", "itemType":"BT_tab", "textLabel":"Specials", "iconName":"tags.png", "soundEffectFileName":"tink.mp3", "homeScreenItemId":"65DB96951DBCA27C750CC6F"} but i might be completely wrong :-) here's what i need the button to do: [[AppoxeeManager sharedManager] show]; so the button will, in effect, be the appoxee inbox link. i don't know if this will show badges when there are new messages or not, but that our be really cool....any one know how?

I'm not familiar specifically with appoxee, but I'd assume that you'll probably need to create a custom plugin screen, and create a custom class to call.

Appoxee said all I needed to do is: "to open the Appoxee inbox from a place other than the button on the top bar. You can add the action of opening Appoxee inbox using this method: [[AppoxeeManager sharedManager] show]; Create any button you want and add this action to it" They won't help me directly without me upgrading to the $100/mo plan :-( (I'm using BT 1.5)

yeah, it sounds like they want you to call the action from perhaps a UIButton. Again, I'm only assuming, but I think they'd have to give you some files to load into xCode. Then you'll have to use a custom plugin page to display and utilize such a button. Its very doable. But would require a bit of studying outside of BuzzTouch.
