Is the Plugin Market open for business?

Hi All, Does anyone know when the plugin market will reopen? I will be very excited to see all the new plugins. Jake

Hi, Jake! I just got access to the plugins yesterday. It will be my first priority to work through the backlog of plugins and get the new ones to market. Mark Fleming is working on the plugin market too. The plugin market is extremely important to the success of buzztouch, and I plan to build a streamlined process that gets new plugins to market as quickly as developers can make them. There is a lot to do! But my first focus will be to work through the backlog.

I will look at it right now, LA! One thing I am finding is that there seems to be some confusion on the submission process--unless I am doing it wrong, most plugins in queue don't have all the required files, like the icon, config file, read me, and screenshots. Keep in mind this is my first day, so I may be missing something!

Awesome, you guys are going to do great things for the plugin market! @Susan: I betcha that most people did not submit all of the required files (even my first submissions were missing those things). Cheers, David https://buzztouchmods.com

I think that is part of the changing expectation. The good news is that the icon, config, read me, and screenshots are very easy in comparison to learning the iOS and Android! I started work on a checklist, and that will help everyone know what each file is for. For example, on my first config file, my description was too long and ran off the page. In the long run, I imagine we will have online tools for all of these items.

Susan @buzztouch, I know I didn't include my icon and sent a message about it to the market that is was in my control panel, so if you like, you can reject and I'll redo it. LA

Susan, if you have an opportunity, when that checklist is done, I'd like to take a gander at it. I'm still working on my app, but eventually a plug in is in my future, I just know it. Cheers! -- Smug

You bet, Smug! There are a lot of bits and pieces.
