Awesome example of how to make it clear to everyone exactly what your app does. Although, I have a rule: If a plugin is made by @Chris1 or @kittsy then auto buy, no need to think about it !! They are guaranteed value !! Nice work Chris ;)

@Chris1-- We had asked David in St. Loius, links to videos and Docs within the Plugin description will be auto hyperlinked. Go for it! Congrats on the awesome plugin! And the handsome documentation. :-) -- Niraj

Hey Chris, not sure if I missed it in the documentation but does this plugin work via html files remotely hosted and accessed via custom URL? Thanks!

Yep - you can create the HTML docs however you like, and store them wherever you need

Brilliant stuff. Disecting this code I see that I was in the ballpark. If i had just taken out the http:// on one of my tests when I was monkeying with this - I might have seen it work. I never used that CKEditor HTML/Doc screen - David just bashed it so much and it is flaky so I always made my own html docs and and just FTP's them up. I knew we could reference them by the id - but would have never realized that the 'other' protocol is just a 'blank' or no protocol. So close! But I'd have never created that control panel or such nice documentation. This is a major game changer for apps. Should be a huge seller. Thanks for unraveling the mystery :)

Hi gang, Is this pdf still valid? I don't see it mentioned on the plugin details as was suggested in this thread. I'm trying to make it work with the custom html plugin (https://www.buzztouch.com/plugins/plugin.php?pid=25345CE1537CB2872B9050B) and simply link from those screens to each other but the doc talks about having to register the html file... what html file?

I am not seeing the "Links to Buzztouch Screens" section on my HTML Pro plugin, as described in your pdf pages 4-7. Here's what I see: https://www.dropbox.com/s/00260t5lr2j2wq0/href-link-screenshot.jpg Anyone else with this issue? I'm using the BT hosted control panel (not self hosted).

Sorry - I guess I had it displaying the wrong link to use on the control panel. It should be fixed now. If you're self-hosted, be sure to download the updated plugin file.
