Plug-in options missing

Tony_B_ — Sun, 26 Jul 2015 12:55:29 GMT

I have an app that is (finally) working fine, so I decided to create a new copy using a different name that will be used for the production version. The new version does not play sounds when I tap on the screen.

I used Windows Explorer to create a new folder and copied the existing files, deleted the existing XDK files from the copy and imported this folder into a new XDK project. I did an Upload/ Android Crosswalk Build and download to my device. I find that when I tap the screen no sound file is played. I went back and compared my original working version project details (CWK63) with the new project (TSLEQR) and found the original had a section showing plug-ins for the Cordova Hybrid Mobile App Settings section but the new version doesn't say Cordova, it just says Hybrid Mobile App Settings and doesn't have a section showing plug-ins at all. I must have done something wrong but I can't see it.

Using XDK 2248.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi Tony, that import feature

Hi Tony, that import feature does not work very well for what you were trying to do. Sorry about that. A better approach would be to create a blank template project and then copy your files into that new project:

Projects tab
Start a New Project (bottom of projects list)
Templates
Blank
HTML5 + Cordova
copy your old source files and resource files into the new blank template directories (should be located in the www directory)

Hi Paul,,

Hi Paul,,

Thanks for the reply. I tried as you suggested and did an upload build which worked, but then I realized I'd forgotten to include the plug-ins for Media and File and also the launch/ splash screen icons so I updated them in the XD project info and tried again. It's taking a lot longer than usual to upload. In fact I'm about to give up and try again later today. The project is still called TSLEQR, here's a link to the first build which didn't include all the plug-ins or splash/launch icons

Thanks,

Hi Paul,

Patience paid off. I waited a few minutes longer and the upload finally finished. So I did the build/ download and everything works. Thanks again for you assistance.
