I was curious to try out the Deploy2 plugin with my own solution which is considerably larger and more complex than the provided demo solution. Since the demo only works with files named 360Deploy demo solution.fmp12, I renamed my solution according to that naming convention. But now I don't get the option to copy/paste scripts into the solution. Is that an intentional roadblock in Demo mode, or am I missing a step that re-enables that setup step?

Hello MMHinSEA,

Are your dev files hosted on a server?  If so, the scripts are not necessary.  The scripts are only used to create clones of the dev files when the dev files are local.  If the dev files are hosted, we can ask the dev server to provide the clones, and no scripted cloning process is required.

If your dev files are local, the 360Deploy Dev Server configuration detects if you are using a file path instead of a host name for your dev location, and provides you the option of copy/pasting the scripts, because that is the only case where they are required.

 

Thanks,

Joe Martin

 

Yes - working with FMS hosted files. Thanks for the clarification about the scripts. I must have noticed those in an early phase of playing with the file on my desktop.
