To obtain this CATEGORY_ID you need to create a favourite of your Games categories, edit the favourites.xml file and copy/paste the CATEGORY_ID into your home.xml file : http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...pid1422843(2013-05-18, 03:08)Angelscry Wrote:(2013-05-18, 02:41)n1md4 Wrote: The point is, I don't want categories at all. If I hide the default category I have nothing within ALA but the ".." with only 'add-on settings' or 'go to root' as options.So, simply show the default category, put all your launchers inside it and finally point your XBMC Games menu/favorite/shortcut to the Default directory (plugin://plugin.program.advanced.launcher/?default) instead of the Advanced Launcher root directory (plugin://plugin.program.advanced.launcher).
2 questions, if you don't mind
Q1
I have created a 'games' and 'comics' categories, and have moved all my games to 'games'. I then edited my skin home.xml to have this line:
plugin://plugin.program.advanced.launcher/?games
But, when I attempt to launch the menu item it prompts me to create a new launcher. How should I correctly link to the 'games' category?
Q2
Before I created a 'comics' category, I edited my skin's home.xml with this menu item:
plugin://plugin.program.advanced.launcher/?comics
This gave me to opportunity to add a launcher. But, since creating the 'comics' category I can not either i/ edit the launcher to delete it, or ii/ change the items category; it does not exist in the menu list.
Is there a way to find this rogue launcher and delete it!? ... admittedly, this one is my fault.
Here is the debug log http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=21383
Much appreciated.
Lied! Here's another question:
Q3
Is there a scraper for magazines as shown in your first post, or did you create the data locally?
Q2: Hummmm... you can edit the launchers.xml file and delete the rogue launcher. BTW, that's effectively not the way to proceed. But... now... thanks to you.... I have a bug to fix...
Q3: Is there a magazine database or ressource? Yes actually all manually. Maybe I can try to create something based on Amazon website or API.
