Witsec is a very good developer, but he might not have noticed this behavior.

I remembered having seen this issue before, and that’s when it clicked.
Without even inspected your code :cool:

If you’d like, I can in PM, with all due modesty, provide detailed feedback on your plugin's code and share ...

To fix the bug, move your icon out of ".navbar-devices".

That is not the right place for it.
You can place your icon next to it, but not inside it.

A user relying on Mobirise's default settings will still encounter the same issue with the icon disappearing.

You can either view all the view buttons or group them together.
If you group them together, then the bug with your implementation appears.

It's not a feature. It's a bug.

No, I haven't tried your new version.

I'm outside. I'm waiting for my daughter.

Have you tried what I told you?
From memory I had seen this problem with the Witsec plugin.
The problem must come from this.

I know where your bug came from :)

Like Witsec, do you insert a <li> in the views of Mobirise?
If so, the problem comes from that.

I just thought about it while waiting for my daughter in front of school.

To reproduce the bug, in the Mobirise settings, disables the views, I no longer have the ...

I had 5 minutes, so I took a quick look.

Before clicking the "VN Block Gallery" icon, the inline style is:
style="width:66px;height:58px;cursor:pointer"

After clicking, the inline style is:
style="width:66px;height:58px;cursor:pointer;display:none"

Something in your code is injecting this inline ...

Hi Tommy,

Just to clarify, all my tests have been performed on clean environments.

Every time, I started with a fresh Windows installation and a fresh Mobirise installation before installing VN Block Galerie.

So the issue does not appear to be related to MobiWise Store or any other third-party ...

I understand your point of view.

My comment wasn't really about the download itself.

What I meant is that, from a user's perspective, opening the system's default browser to download an add-on feels a bit unusual when everything could happen directly inside Mobirise.
Since Mobirise is an Electron ...

Also tested on a cleanly installed Windows PC, same problem.

Tommy understood what I meant.
After all, why open the default browser to download a file? Mobirise, being an Electron app, already includes a browser.

As for the bug, here is a video.

I tested it on a Windows 11 virtual machine (so, a completely clean one).
Several attempts, same result.

A minor, harmless bug...
After installing a block, the VN Block Gallery icon disappears.

Please do not take my previous question the wrong way.

What I was also suggesting is that, instead of asking the user to download the plugin first and then install it manually, you could provide a simple Install action directly from within your plugin, using the native function mentioned earlier.

Alright, thank you.

You might want to consider integrating the installation process directly into VN Block Galerie, because I felt a bit lost with all the text in German.

By the way, are you planning to internationalize your plugin to make it easier to understand for non-German-speaking users ...

Hello Volker,

I have just tested your plugin in a clean virtual machine, and I must admit that I do not fully understand how it is supposed to work.

For example, when I click Download on Kalendar iCal , my default browser opens. Why does this happen?

After that, I cannot find where the block is ...

Thanks, Volker! 😊

You're absolutely right. --remote-debugging-port=9222 is a very useful option.

I deliberately left it out of this tutorial because I'm preparing a dedicated guide on remote debugging.

There's quite a lot to cover, and I think it deserves a separate topic.

Thanks for bringing ...

When Mobirise encounters a problem, it is often difficult to understand what is actually happening.

Since Mobirise is built on Electron, it supports several startup parameters that can enable diagnostic logging and advanced V8 JavaScript engine options.

In this tutorial, we'll explore the most ...
