The Plug-in Bar
PlanetPress Workflow offer a constantly increasing number of plugins, while always allowing third party
plug-ins to be installed and set up to be used by PlanetPress Workflow. The PlanetPress Workflow Plug-in
Bar lists the available plugin in any of PlanetPress Workflow, and is divided into categories, which users
can customize at will.
A๎"Plug-In"๎is normally something that is added to a software and, while most of the PlanetPress Plug-ins
are installed by default, some may be added so the term is correct. However, because the plug-ins are
always expected to execute some sort of task, they are always referred to, in this documentation, as "tasks",
except in the specific case of importing a new plug-in or customizing the Plug-in bar.
Categories
The default categories lists plug-ins according to what type of task each achieve. Therefore, when first
starting your PlanetPress Workflow Configuration program, the following categories are used:
l Inputs
l Actions
l Outputs
l Data splitters
l Metadata Related
l Process logic
l Connectors
Note
An Uncategorized category is dynamically created if your PlanetPress Workflow finds any plug-in that would not
be part of the existing Plug-in bar. User-defined plug-ins and third party application plug-ins falls into such a
category.
