How do I add more information to the info screen with firefox addon-sdk? - firefox-addon-sdk

Most add-ons have a lot of information, when you click on "more".
How can I add more info about my add-on visible for the user in his add-on overview?
I cannot find any of those options for package.json (https://stackoverflow.com/a/23854002/1069083)

The documentation for the fields in package.json is here:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/SDK/Tools/package_json
The main field I think you're looking for is 'description'. You can put very long strings into that field, however keep in mind that JSON does not allow multi-line strings.

Does tinymce have an option, via menu, to insert form fields into it or just by editing the code?

Does anyone know of a ready-made plugin that allows adding input, textarea, select etc. on tinymce?
The tinymce.dom.Selection API (https://www.tiny.cloud/docs/api/tinymce.dom/tinymce.dom.selection/#select) allows you to select elements or set content in the TinyMCE editor. You can assign the API class to an action or an interaction element like a button or form, and any selected content will be replaced with the contents the API action passes in.
If that's not a good fit for what you need, is there an example of the type of adding input, a textarea, or a select you're looking for?
There are no official plugins that allow such interactive elements to be added. TinyMCE is a text editor that is built to create blog posts, articles, etc. By design, it is not a page builder. However, there may be some unofficial plugins on GitHub that may implement such features.
If you are going to insert forms and text areas that should not be edited or reconfigured afterward, you can use templates. They may come as any valid HTML. Thus, some fixed forms can be just saved as templates.
Another way is, of course, inserting HTML directly into the code.

Customize basic search form and provide appropriate search results

In basic search form I have included checkboxes to detect duplicates on name & phone number.
How shall i proceed further.I have included fields on /custom/modules/Contacts/metadata/SearchFields.php and searchdefs.php.
Please help.
SugarCRM's Basic and Advanced Search field arrnagements can (and should) be configured using the Studio Tool. Log in as a System Administrator, click the Admin link in the top right corner and find the link for Studio
Within Studio, navigate to the module you're like to configure, go into Layouts, then Search, then Basic Search. The screen arrangement can be configured using drag-and-drop 'bricks' to represent the fields. All database fields for the module can be added to the Basic or Advanced search filters.
The screen can be configured using code, but I don't see why you would opt to do that. If you do, though, be sure to clear your cache using Repair and Rebuild or by enabling Developer Mode in the System Settings.

Eclipse: search text in documentation pane

Is there a way to search for text in the documentation pane of Eclipse?
E.g. see the attached screenshot showing some Android SDK documentation:
and see this screenshot showing the Search menu:
I can't see how you can do a search. And Cmd F doesn't seem to do anything either.
This is basically a web browser pane. Sadly it is quite limited in functionality, you can't search within the view (and of course not within the documentation database instead of the currently shown document).
So the work around is to open the document in a complete, external browser. In this case it is easy to find the document (http://developer.android.com/reference/packages.html) but sometimes it might be annoying to find the URL as this limited web browser view doesn't even tell it to you or gives you a possibility to get it.
If it was about site search and not searching withing the page and if the site doesn't offer a site search (this one does) then of course you can use Google with a site:developer.android.com parameter; similar for other search engines.

What's the function of the Publish field of items in Sitecore

I am wondering what the function is of the Publish field of items in Sitecore. Just to be sure I am clear about what field I am talking about it's the field in the "Publishing" section of an item which is only shown when you check the "Standard fields" option.
Normally that field is not filled in and I expected it to be filled automatically by Sitecore when an item is published due to it's publishing restrictions settings but I am no longer sure about this.
Regards,
David
The Publish field of Publishing section contains a date and time for an item to be published from. If you do not specify anything here, the item is publishable by default. These changes are applied to the whole item (the field is shared). If you'd like to change this for different versions, use the LifeTime section instead.
I would encourage you to get acquainted with Content Cookbook for more details.
If I remember correctly, these fields can be used to properties of the publishment. For example, the date range when your page should be online.
If not, please give me a list of fields that are available.

How to create an Export Plugin for Confluence

I'd like to create a plugin that exports into a custom document format similar to the way that export to PDF and export to Word currently work in Confluence.
Does anyone have experience creating a custom export plugin for Confluence? If so do you know of any resources or samples that describe what would be involved?
Here are the most useful resources that I've found so far:
Plugin Tutorial - Adding a custom action to Confluence - This shows how to add an action to the "Tools" menu that appears at the top of a confluence page. Additionally it shows how to interact with the Page object to get more info about the page.
Plugin Module Types - The second guide I found helpful was the list of general plugin module types. It was informative to discover that a "plugin" is really a collection of "modules" and seeing this list was helpful to understand how to apply that model to creating a plugin of the type I was looking for. Additionally the Confluence Plugin Guide was also helpful for a breakdown on Confluence specific plugin modules.
The Confluence Developer FAQ - Useful for information on how to convert wiki content from a page into HTML as well as a number of other hard-to-find gems.
Finally, it was hard to find, but in order to understand how to "target" a particular menu or area of the existing UI to extend, I found it very helpful to read about the guide for Creating your Plugin Descriptor.
