XF 2.3 Add-On Not Uploadable

[idyllicforums]

I've never edited an add-on and I've run into trouble.

I need to edit the code for one of the adons I'm trying to install to make it compatible. I have to uncompress the adon in order to edit the code, but when recompressing the add-on will fail to load into Xenforo through the admin panel. I hope I'm not missing something obvious in the documentation, but I can't seem to find anything. I appreciate any sort of help, thanks!

It doesn't work that way; you need to utilize XenForo PHP commands to develop an add-on. However, due to the hash JSON file, achieving your goal may be doubtful. Request assistance from the add-on developer...

Yep, to achieve your desired results it should be built using CLI.

Best to look @ the XF doc to start then post in this forum with questions.
