For starters, make sure you unziped the file properly. There should be a separate folder called SuperDateTime in the \SlimServer\server\Plugins folder. Within the SuperDateTime folder there will be a file called Plugin.pm. After you unzip the file you need to restart the SlimServer. This can be accomplished by rebooting, or by restarting the service in Windows (control panel->performance and maintenance->administrative tools->services then find slimserver in the list and click restart). After doing this the plugin "should" appear on the slim server server settings plugin page. On this page you then need to enable the plugin by clicking on the checkbox for it. Once this is done, configuration options will appear on that page (teams, zip code, etc). THEN... to get the plugin to display information you must enable it as your "off" screensaver for each player. This is done from the "Player" settings screen under the "Screen Savers" section. I know this sounds like a lot, but it's really not that hard. If you've done all this and it's still not working you need to restart the server in plugin debug mode. To do this you first need to stop the server software (control panel->performance and maintenance->administrative tools->services then find slimserver in the list and click stop). Then open a command prompt (start menu->programs->accessories->Command Prompt). From the command prompt change directories into your slimserver directory. CD c:\program files\slimserver\server then start the server in debug slim -d_plugins Now watch the server startup and there should be some text output that hopefully will indicate what's wrong. Please let me know how it goes or if you need clarification on any of the above. -- GoCubs _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
