Server Side

Hi:

Sorry for so many consecutive posts, I am 100% new to ScriptMaster Advanced

When I create plugins, do I have to install them on every desktop or can they be installed in the server (or both?).

I run FM Server 11, FM Pro Advanced 11 on Win and FM Pro 11 on Win and Mac. Total users 8.

Thanks

Carlos

Hi Carlos,

The location to install the plugin depends on how you plan to use them. If you have users that are going to be running scripts via FileMaker Pro then the plugin will need to be installed on any users machine that is going to be running scripts. If you plan to have the scripts run as schedules or via Perform Script on Server (only applicable for FMS 13+) then you will only need to have the plugin installed on the server.

FYI: I write a module that will help you automatically install plugins as you need them: http://www.modularfilemaker.org/module/pluginmanager/
