importing joomla contant to app?

I'm interested in this: http://bt-addons.com/news/247-joomla-content-script.html so I can port my webzine to an iPad app. I'm assuming I would need to be self hosted to do this? Is there anything available directly from buztouch's plugins that would let me do this? the site is http://www.indiemusicmonthly.com thanks!

Do you mean the equivalent of the joomla content script from Danny? Not that I am aware of… If your Website is mobile friendly, you can wrap it in a customURL or htmlDoc plugin… But Dannys scripts are pretty unique, so (for the moment) there isn't anything similar (that I am aware of). He's a pretty approachable guy; just send him a private message asking your details, and I'm sure he'll get back to you. Also, @dusko has done some publishing with BT, and seems to be having a good run of it although he focuses on Android based devices for the moment. http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=C346AE4EC91567700728BEC&fid=06DB0BCB08E8888&sortColumn=FT.id&sortUpDown=&currentPage=1 Still, take a look around the plugin market; now that it's open it's starting to get active again. Maybe something not around today will be there tomorrow. Cheers! -- Smug

Hi, Thanks! We had a private email conversation about this. Think that all questions are answered and if not I'd love to hear them. Best Regards, Danny

You don't need to be self hosted. But you need access to your website FTP where joomla is installed. Add a few files with your joomla database info and connect it to the plugin via the dataurl. It's pretty nifty. With the new 3.0 core you can add outside plugins so there isn't a barrier between BT hosted and self hosted per say.
