What i've missed? what happened ? should I push that update ASAP to my skin users as well ?
No need, we pushed out an update on the official Kodi repo to fix it. It was some other repo that hosted the faulty version of skinshortcuts

What is the issue ? Did you setup path substitution for smart playlists and they don't show up in skinshortcuts ?
Please provide a little more details so we can assist

well to be clear here is an example for an xsp
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<smartplaylist type="tvshows">
<name>RepWGL</name>
<match>all</match>
<rule field="genre" operator="is">
<value>Documentaires</value>
</rule>
<rule field="path" operator="contains">
<value>smb://DISKSTATION1/Docs</value>
</rule>
<limit>6</limit>
<order direction="descending">dateadded</order>
</smartplaylist>
With path rules, does not work. If i delete path rule, it works. If i delete genre rule, does not work. Try operation with "is" or "contains' but same things.
It works before and from a day to another, does not work anymore. Thought at first that comes from skin but mikesilvo said that comes from this script.
Hope it helps.
Thanks.

Anyone have a view on the user-selected thumbnail image being moved from the .DATA.xml file to the skins .properties file?
The change would mean that the thumbnail the user selected wouldn't carry over between skins. The thinking being that different skins have such different visual styles, that moving from one skin to another (which display the user thumb) when the thumb carries over as at-present means that the thumb selected may not fit the visual style. Would mostly be there for users who switch skins regularly (and is an indirect response to a couple of user comments I've read over the last couple of months.)
The downside being that, if the user DOES want the same thumb over multiple skins, they would have to reset it skin-by-skin.

Bob, I mentioned it to you before, as I see it as disadvantage. In my opinion, the "roaming" option is very annoying.
As A skinner - I always move from one skin to another to test things - and It make me a lot of work to reset\redefine the menus all the time.
As a user - once you chose your skin - you will stay with him for a long period, and when you want to change one, you can always rebuild your menus again.
However, I think that Marcel's helper can be helpful in this decision, because user can make backup of their shortcuts, and restore them in the new script. Marcel just need to customize it a little build, something like "Kodi Export library" wizard.. that asks you if you want to export X, and you enter "yes\no".. so exporting the thumbnails or not will be user decision.
