AngryNinja - Collector Plugin

I have a question in relation to the 'Collector' plugin. Can i set the items for all users via the control panel and take the ability away from the customer to add and remove items? Thanks Steve

Hey there Steve, I asked your questions in this post a while ago. Sadly, the answer is "no". https://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=CEC4273E61C6F9E768B7DFC Yet there is hope, AN says you can customize the plugin to suit your needs! -- Niraj

Hey Steve, Sorry for the delay, with the holidays and all. Niraj is correct, the collector plugin was designed to have users enter their own items, where the instant database plugin was designed to have only admin items added and displayed. After releasing the Instant Database plugin, I had many people request a plugin that the user could modify. Both plugins serve their own purpose, depending on what you are looking to do, and how much control you want to give the user. To simplify things: Collector Plugin - For users to add/modify/delete their own entries and keep a local copy of their data on their device. (Think like a local notes app, or a local schedule app on your device, where users would want to add their own data) Instant Database Plugin - Data resides on your web hosting, and users can only view the data, not modify or delete it. (Think like displaying data from thousands of records, like a restaurant locator, where you wouldn't want users to modify any of the data)

Sounds really interesting... Ninja- Are you planning to make any updates as required for iPhone 6 and 6+? Thanks

Hey NCBuzz, Which updates are you referring to? No @3x images are needed, as I'm using an iPhone 6 Plus and there isn't any noticeable distortion or stretching. As far as 64 bit, that would just be selecting standard architecture in the project settings.
