New version of app and Configuration File problem

My app is on AppStore few months, then I decided to make new version with new plugin included. First I made version 1.0 offline (by deleting Configuration Data URL and Report to cloud URL). Then I made changes to app, again restore Configuration Data URL and Report to cloud URL. Then I submit version 2.0 app to Appstore, now it is in Waiting for Review phase. Problem is now: if I install version 1.0 from Appstore, version 2.0 is installed on my device, which is not published yet on Appstore. New plugin is also present but it doesn't work, of course (Plugin not found). I think problem will be solved when Apple publish version 2.0., but meantime users who download app will get wrong and half-working version. Looks I did something wrong with Configuration File?

Hi friend. 1. When you have a plugin that you've added to the package, and you've updated the control panel to use this plugin, and it's published, users will get a plugin not found in the live app. \ 2. To solve this, you can use live and design mode. Add the plugin, but do NOT publish changes. Instead, copy the config from Design Mode, place into your BT_Config.txt file for 2.0 app and submit (but make sure to change the "currentMode":"Design", to "currentMode":"Live", in your BT_Config.txt before submitting so the app will continue to get the live data later. Please read this, Danny gives an excellent explanation: https://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=5F58C979C91673DE681FDB9&currentPage=1 Long story short, you will be OK when apple publishes the newest version :-) No worries. Congratulations on your new app. Cheers, David Van Beveren http://btmods.com/chat ^ Chat with other BT members live! http://btmods.com/hire ^ Hire MrDavid for one of his services!
