TO all Skinners: Skin Version check reinstated for MP 1.1.0 (1 Viewer)

[Dadeo]

If you have not seen the latest Notice to skin designers, on our Home Page please check it.

The skin version check will be reinstated for MP 1.1.0 final release and skin files (references.xml) need to be updated to:

<version>1.1.0.0</version>

Note the fourth digit, which may even be used one day

Also please note that the skin should comply all the changes that have been made for 1.1.0 (someone please put a link here). Just updating the version info will cause only trouble

The link is in the News Release as well as any of this forum's Sticky Posts regarding skin changes: Skin Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.1.0

AFAIK the only skin change actually required for skins to work with MP 1.1.0 is the change of the Progress Control (ID 118) in MyMusicPlayingNow.xml Most of the changes are new features, which are optional.

If anyone is aware of any other changes that will produce errors or problems, please let me know here in this thread, I will update the Wiki page accordingly.
