    Okay I’ve fixed the issue, see code here, and I’ll prepare a new release.

    One important thing here is that if you write the lexer xml file, it has to be UTF-8 encoded (so without BOM). If you write it UTF-8-BOM encoded then Notepad++ won’t read it, even though it also won’t give the “xml is missing” error anymore.

      Apologies if this is in the wrong spot…
      Having issues with the XML Tools plugin crashing when trying to “pretty print” the the xml is missing a single closing bracket on the last tag (it was a bad cut-paste). It consistently happened as I’m poor at cut-paste :oP.
      Thanks for any assistance in passing this forward to the appropriate devs…

        It is the wrong spot. This Topic is specifically about the Plugins Admin tool inside Notepad++, not for general questions about any plugin.

        It would be better to ask it as a New Topic in the Plugin Development or Help Wanted sections.

        Thanks for any assistance in passing this forward to the appropriate devs…

        The Plugins > XML Tools > About contains a link to the repository for XML Tools development. From that site, you can go to the “Issues” page, and can create an issue directly with the XML Tools developer.

            Hello,

            I am a new developer for several days. I make my own plug based on the ‘Npp Converter’.
            But I am confused about the separation lines in the menu.
            Could anyone tell me how can I remove them? It seems a simple question but I still can’t figure out how to customiz it.

            Thanks!

            The separation lines in the red box:
            1645712633163-img.png

            this is the code:

            void commandMenuInit()
            {
                //setCommand(1, TEXT("HEX -> ASCII"), hex2Ascii, NULL, false);
            	//setCommand(2, TEXT("---"), NULL, NULL, false);
            	//setCommand(CONVERSIONPANEL_INDEX, TEXT("Conversion Panel"), conversionPanel, NULL, false);
            	//setCommand(4, TEXT("---"), NULL, NULL, false);
            	//setCommand(5, TEXT("Edit Configuration File"), editConf, NULL, false);
            	//setCommand(6, TEXT("About"), about, NULL, false);
            
            	setCommand(0, TEXT("Filter1"), filterRun1, NULL, false);
            	setCommand(1, TEXT("Filter2"), filterRun2, NULL, false);
            	setCommand(2, TEXT("Filter3"), filterRun3, NULL, false);
            	setCommand(3, TEXT("Edit Configuration"), conversionPanel, NULL, false);
            	setCommand(4, TEXT("About"), about, NULL, false);
            }

                  Question: How do I update my local NppPluginList? I find a NppPluginList in C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins\Config\nppPluginList.dll
                  version is 1.7.8

                  and the releases on github only offer the source code, but no compiled NppPluginList…

                  Answer: I just downloaded the 8.7.8 installer of Notepad++ and the NppPluginList got updated too. Confusing was the “no update available…” The text and the … is very small, but contains important information about the update releases, so you’ll end up ccleaner or plugins tell you npp isn’t up to date, while it self tells you it is…

                  (I’m not sure if this is the right thread to ask)

                    Or download the most-recent portable copy, where you can get the DLL without having to upgrade the rest, if you don’t want to.

                    Confusing was the “no update available…”

                    See our “most recent version” FAQ and the User Manual page on Upgrading Notepad++

                    The text and the … is very small, but contains important information about the update releases, so you’ll end up ccleaner or plugins tell you npp isn’t up to date, while it self tells you it is…

                    I don’t see how the size of the text has anything to do with what cleaner tells you (but after years of CCleaner getting worse and worse, I gave up ever listening to what it told me, and uninstalled it ages ago)
