Does this skin support Skin Shortcuts? - redroberts - 2018-11-09

Just tried to implement this to no avail, but then looking at supported skins, doesnt look like it's an option.

Can you advise please?

Yes.
If in doubt look in the addon.xml...

just tried and cant get it to work even following the addon instructions....

created a simple overrides.xml and placed in %appdata%\kodi\userdata

Code:
 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

 <overrides>

   <override action="Testing">

<action>cleanlibrary(video,true)</action>

<action>updatelibrary(video,true)</action>

<action>cleanlibrary(video,true,true,true,true)</action>

   </override>

 </overrides

then called Testing from the menu shortcut

nothing seems to run Sad

Have you read the documentation in the addon folder? There's a ton of it, it looks amazingly (unusually) helpful.
A quick look in script.skinshortcuts\resources\docs\advanced\overrides.md and I found:

Quote:# Overrides.xml

The overrides.xml file is used by many of the advanced functions of Skin Shortcuts to define how they will behave, and what they will show. See individual topics in [Advanced Usage](./Advanced Usage.md) for details of the specific elements that each function uses.

The overrides.xml file needs to be in a shortcuts folder in your skins directory. All content goes within an `<overrides />` element.

```
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<overrides>

</overrides>

If you've read all that documentation and still struggling I'd think the skinshortcuts thread would be the best place to ask.
