Here is the install.rdf. It did work before OK with 1.8 but since 1.11 it installs but doesn't show in the feather option or change the player.

The changes to the skins were only to get it working, things like creator haven't. I did check for any differences in the porting of add-ons before making the changes before to 1..11.

From your install.rdf I can see that you did the feather/port for 1.8. However, we use Songbird's namespaces since 1.11. So there is some 'inverse porting' needed to get it to work again.
You can see the old porting guide here, do the opposite to get it to work.

Thanks,

I have made the changes, tested, same thing. I also went to the wiki and inserted this,

<!-- Nightingale -->
<em:targetApplication>
<Description>
<em:id>nightingale@getnightingale.com</em:id>
<em:minVersion>1.11.0a</em:minVersion>
<em:maxVersion>1.12.0a</em:maxVersion>
</Description>
</em:targetApplication>

although I was not sure where to insert it.

Still with the same result of it installing OK but not listed in feathers or as the feather in use when I restart.Sad

So your install.rdf does now start like this?

Code:

If so, please upload your skin and I'll have a look at it.

Yes, I double checked, looks exactly like that.

Where is the best place to upload it to. Just thinking people might start downloading from the add-on page before it was ready.

You can also attatch it to a post here, if it is below the allowed file size (just try it, don't remember).

although that is not related to this thread, is it? As this is a nonworking version?!

If you need my changes (add-on model, not completed but about 600 lines written), contact me. However, I'm still working on it.

OK, I tried last night to attach it to my reply but the file was to big. Here is the link to the feather on dropbox although once it is working I will upload it to the add-on page.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/flq4rwchwknd5w...200.3a.xpi


Thanks for the help.
