I was waiting years for this. Great shortcut feature! That will save a lot of my time.

Plugin must have icon and bot interface? This is final test and step before exe bots ?

 

[VladZen]

Plugin is more like mini-project or custom action block which can be included into main project.

Yes, and this is very useful and great feature, but the icon and bot UI is not necessary for that right? , but you forced us to use it, and because that i thinking about this feature as final test for exe bots

 

[Jack77]

I have many C# function blocks I've made and that feature will really organize all the mess. Now, with icons, will be easier to read and organize complex projects.

Besides that I realized that in project maker, plugin won't open like project inside project to follow each step. That is really a good thing at some situations.

Great update!

Just one thing guys, please, create a category for organize plugins. I mean labels.

Without category, we will have a big disorganized list of plugins

It will be good to add virtual profile in other countries but import names/surnames, cities etc....

Hello,

is a plugin able to send values through own variables ?

For example, if I create a plugin to generate random name+last name, can I then get the values in the template ? As it is the case for project in project ?

Variable values can be passed from project to plugin via variable macros and BotUI.
Check examples here:

Hello @VladZen
Thanks for your help.

Yes I read this https://zennolab.com/discussion/thr...-0-0-2-8-2018-plugins-for-projectmaker.50415/ before. And I also downloaded and tested the examples here : https://zennolab.com/discussion/threads/discussion-new-version-5-21-1-0.50806/#post-381548

So passing variables from project to plugin is OK now. But what I am still not able to do is passing variables from plugin to project.

Hello @VladZen
But what I am still not able to do is passing variables from plugin to project.

The main gray layout in BotUI can be set to return data - variables, list, etc.

Thank you @VladZen
It works. I saw this option but I didn't see that we could return several variables by cliking on 'Variables' instead of 'Variable'.

I send the files as example here if someone has the same issue.
