Default Plugins

[steeb]

Dear all,

I've tried this by looking at threads but can't seem to get it to work so have had to resort to a post. Probably missing something really obvious

I have put this in config.xml

Code:

............
</MenuLayout>
  <PluginSettings>
    <!-- plugin settings can go here -->
    <Plugins>
      <DefaultTVGuide>TV Listings</DefaultTVGuide>
      <DefaultRecordings>TV Recordings</DefaultRecordings>
      <DefaultRadio>Web Radio</DefaultRadio>
    </Plugins>
    <SubMenu>
      <MenuLayout>
...............

(I couldn't find any entries already existing for 'defaults') but this doesn't appear to have any effect?

In the wrong place? Wrong syntax?

cheers

steeb did you get Radio to work for you?? I added

Code:

<PluginSettings>
    <!-- plugin settings can go here -->
    <DefaultTVGuide>
        <DefaultTVGuide>TV Listings</DefaultTVGuide>
    </DefaultTVGuide>
    <DefaultRecordings>
        <DefaultRecordings>TV Recordings</DefaultRecordings>
    </DefaultRecordings>
    <DefaultRadio>
        <DefaultRadio>Web Radio</DefaultRadio>
    </DefaultRadio>

and the other two work but not radio.

Jaggy, it works for me but my syntax is

Code:

<PluginSettings>
    <!-- plugin settings can go here -->
    <!-- menu keys -->
    <DefaultRadio>Web Radio</DefaultRadio>
    <DefaultPictures>Universe</DefaultPictures>
  </PluginSettings>

Hi Jaggy,

as well as what Martin has, yes I have hot keys working with all 3 like this now and then going on to sub menu:

Code:

..........................
</MenuLayout>
  <PluginSettings>
    <!-- plugin settings can go here -->
      <DefaultTVGuide>TV Listings</DefaultTVGuide>
      <DefaultRecordings>TV Recordings</DefaultRecordings>
      <DefaultRadio>Web Radio</DefaultRadio>
    <SubMenu>
      <MenuLayout>
        <Menu name="Television">
          <MenuItem enabled="true" displayName="TV Listings">TV Listings</MenuItem>
          <MenuItem enabled="true" displayName="TV Recordings">TV Recordings</MenuItem>
          <MenuItem enabled="true" displayName="Live TV">Live TV</MenuItem>
          <MenuItem enabled="true" displayName="Main Menu">Back</MenuItem>
        </Menu>

OK so it's late but apart from the sub menu stuff I can't see what you have got different from what you post above that you said didn't work??? I haven't had time to have another play with mine yet to see what happens when I change it.

Of course just coming up to elevenses here

Previously I had wrapped an extra

<plugins>

</plugins>

around it

Have I missed something? I don't see a /Settings folder anywhere...:confused:

Ah ha, exactly what I thought when Sub first replied

He was being cryptic!

The whole of config.xml is wrapped in

<Settings>

then the sub section

<PluginSettings>

then within this is where my entries are. Well that's how I read it, and it seems to be working fine
