Normally the developer responsible for merging the branch to master is responsible for the initial docs, so only Team Members can create/edit pages in What's New section. But we all try to help out as much as we can, and try to encourage community contribution as much as possible.We only need to document the changes, but at a certain point if the changes are significant we may need a new wiki page.The most important things to document imho are:<ol> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Do users need to do anything different when <a href="http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/13_Plugins/WebEPG" target="_blank">configuring the WebEPG plugin in TV-Server plugins</a> - or does everything on that wiki page still apply to grabbers using JSON? It doesn't look like there are any changes so far, but just checking <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">What is different in creating or customizing a WebEPG Grabber using JSON? i.e. what will we need to add/change on the current <a href="http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/18_Contribute/5_Localization/EPG_Grabbers_and_Tuning_details/WebEPG/WebEPG_Grabber" target="_blank">WebEPG Grabber</a> I think that's what you have covered already?</li> </ol>As Holzi said: That gives us time to 'develop' the docs, and hopefully even get some testers to verify their completeness, accuracy and comprehensiveness before we integrate them into the main wiki pages. It's part of our Docs policy now to try and ensure the wiki docs are updated as soon a a new version of MP is released, which is not easy unless we start documenting during development/testing.@[USER=104034]Holzi[/USER] - now that doskabouter's initial question about WebEPG support has been addressed, maybe this thread should be moved to a 'development' thread? Or should we start a separate Area51 thread once doskabouter feels it is ready for testing? It might be useful if we can interest a few more users who provide WebEPG grabbers to test creating grabbers using JSON (and review the docs <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" />) Once 'ready' and doskabouter adds some new WebEPG grabbers to <a href="https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/forums/submit-epg-grabbers-and-tuningdetails.296/" target="_blank">Submit: EPG-Grabbers and tuningdetails</a> sub forum - a sticky announcing JSON support for 1.6.0 might be useful in that sub-forum as well?  I'm not sure what's the best way to 'inspire' some users to test. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
