All plugins used not showing up in downloaded source for both IOS and Android

I need some clarification. for IOS and Android both. I created a simple menu list that references all 20 plugins on a sample Home screen(simple Menu). But when I download the source I see only 14 plugins in the files. I'm missing Call us, send sms, share via sms, send email, share via email, allow gps. Why would that be? But IF I select in the IOS app the Send email, Share email and allow GPS they work in the simulator. The other 3 missing plugins say not supported(call and both SMS...) if I select them from the list.

Good question: Have a look at the plugins readme or the plugins folder. There are no additional files needed for some of the plugins. Example: Call Us. Because this feature (and some others) don't load an individual UIViewController but instead trigger a built in method in the BT core code you won't see any extra files or plugins in the Xcode project. All the plugins in the list that are of type 'action' are this way. 'Screens' and 'Menus' and 'Settings' all have individual UIViewControllers that get added to project, 'Actions' do not.

Thanks David, That explains why when I selected all 20 plugins and build then into a list I only see 14 within the plugin directory. Thanks for the explanation....
