BasicHome Editor with dummy plugin (1 Viewer)

[riadmelb]

Hi, thank you for this great skin and editor.

I have two dummy plugins (two Multishortcut plugins) that I would like to use in BasicHome. The "Linked Plugin" drop down box should populate the xml files in the skin folder and gather the id as well.

Thank you again.

Thank you again.

Multishortcut plugin gives a random id to the page. It's not so simple to add it to the dropdown list. I need a fixed id. I may add 3 entries for multishortcut plugin with a fixed id and then you have to edit those ids in mp configuration.
This is the only way i could do.

Let me know if it's ok for you.

Thank you Tgx for your offer

StreamedMP BasicHome Editor populates the plugins dropdown box by scanning all xml files in the skin folder, and some how it gets their ids correctly (I think it gets the id by scanning each xml file). This means that the plugins and ids are not hard coded into the editor, simply they are scanned and listed in the box regardless if they are supported or not by the skin.

There is one problem with StreamedMP editor, the plugins dropdown box lists all xml files, even none plugins/relevant ones, so it's not user friendly like yours.

Tgx, I had a second thought about this and I think this might be a big change in the editor code, so leave it the way it is now if you want, as I can add it manually in Basichome.xml easily

Any way this is just an idea

I would suggest an option to manually enter the plug-in ID as one of the drop down list options in the editor. Manually editing isn't a major hassle though, I have several multishortcut plugins, and it was a 10 second procedure to look up their ids and add them in.
