-*Platform: The target platform for the plugin. While most plugins will very likely target all the platforms, some plugins need separate versions for different platforms.
+*Platform: Leave '''Any'''.
-*Compatible firmware: Some plugins require features present only in newer firmwares versions to run. Others did things that were later incorporated in MiOS, so are now obsolete. These versions must be specified here.
+*Compatible firmware: Leave the fields '''empty'''.
 *Dev, Alpha, Beta, RC: these are some of the software development phases. Only '''RC (Release Candidate)''' versions can be submitted for approval. <span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">'''Note:''' the other release types are not implemented yet.</span><br>

 Here you can add, remove, edit, upload and download the files used by the plugin.&nbsp; This is an interface for the SVN repository where the files are stored.&nbsp; To revert the files to a previous version, open the log and select which version to revert to.
-'''IMPORTANT&nbsp;:''' When you add .lua files to the plugin, add them as '''Miscellaneous files'''.&nbsp; Do not add them as Lua files because if you do, LuaUPnP will load them into their lua state and run them as stand alone files in addition to merging them into the implementation.
