Adding Events to a Plug-in

Adding events to an item, region or dynamic action type plug-in, allows them to be exposed to dynamic actions. For example, a Slider plug-in that exposes events such as Start Slide, Sliding, and Stop Slide, allows the creation of dynamic actions that can react when these events occur.

To add events to a plug-in:

1. Navigate to the Plug-ins page. See Accessing Plug-ins.

2. Click the plug-in you want to edit.

   The Plug-in Create/Edit page appears.

3. Scroll down to Events and click Add Event.

   A new row displays under Events.

4. Under Events, specify the following:

   1. Name - The display name under which the plug-in event should show up in the dynamic action, for example: Start Slide.

   2. Internal Name - The name of the assigned JavaScript event that triggers the dynamic action, for Example: slidestart.

5. Click Apply Changes.
