Hello All, I have been trying to create a test WHM plugin. While creating the The AppConfig Configuration File for the plugin, I noticed one parameter named " entryurl ". Could any one please describe what it is, with an example ? I already read below link and didn't understand what should be the path we give for this parameter? and is this necessary while creating the appconfig configuration file ?

  Hello :) Here's how our documentation explains it: Description: The URL to use to enter the application through WHM. If you use this key, WHM automatically creates a link to the application from the WHM interface.
  Possible value: The path to the application, relative to the /var/cpanel/apps/ directory.
  Example: addons/example/index.cgi
  Thus, if the application was stored in /var/cpanel/apps/addons/example/index.cgi then you would use this entry:
  addons/example/index.cgi
  Thank you.

  hi, I registered the plugin using the appconfig.After that if I click the plugin icon from WHM I am getting below error. Any suggestions? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- HTTP error 404 The requested page was not found. Possible reasons why you are seeing this page: [LIST]

(Go Back) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I copied my sample.cgi script to /var/cpanel/apps/ directory and plugin icon sample.gif to /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/addon_plugins. Below are my appconfig entries. ------------------------------------------ name=sample service=whostmgr user=root url=sample.cgi acls=any displayname=Sample - sample entryurl=sample.cgi icon=sample.gif -------------------------------------------

  The following threads offers a more detailed guide to creating a plugin, with examples: How to create a Plugin (WHM & cPanel) Could you let us know if this helps you to install the plugin? Thank you.
