There is no indication so far that Apple is going to start rejecting Magazine Apps in the App Store. They are however encouraging users to put their Apps in the Newsstand, which we are working on pushing a solution into our studio to make that very easy to do. Though this is not required yet. We have many many examples of Magazine style apps in the app store today. The Atlantic, Ebony, Chicago Magazine, Graphic Design USA and Johns Hopkins Magazine just to name a few.

Apple has been rejecting apps that make more sense in iBooks to help drive up the number of ebooks, but this doesn't apply to Magazines with In-App purchases.

I am not experiencing this issue on my side at this time.

This could be due to a cache issue. We updated the studio last night. Please empty the cache in your browser and refresh the page.

You will need an httpheader tag.

<httpheader name="php" Content-Type="application/json" Accept="text/plain"/> 

Then you also need to add httpheader="php" to your datasource. Since you don't have an API key, this should be all you need to do.

I have submitted a new version to the Play Store that now supports the Nexus 7. Thanks for bringing this to our attention!

Jessie,

I have confirmed that fusebox is currently not supporting the Nexus 7 due to an oversight in the apps manifest with regards to the front facing camera on the Nexus 7. I am logging a bug to resolve this.

In the meantime I will email you a link to download it directly outside of the play store so you can use it on that device.

Thanks. Sorry about that.

The issue here seemed to be a timing issue accessing the datasource to assign your variables. I made a small change to the wire in your setupHighlightVars action and it seems to have given it enough of a gap to work correctly. I added a .5 sec delay to the play action inside of your setupHighlightVars action. This seems to give the datasource time to define all the pages properly.

I also moved the play action inside your removeHighlight action inside of your if statement and that covers the issues with missing a page to remove.


<action name="removeHighlight">
<if lhs="[system:orientation]" operator="e" rhs="portrait">
<assign property="var:totalPagesInBook" value="[datasource:pagesFeed.dataSourceResultCount]" />
<else>
<assign property="var:totalPagesInBook" value="[eval: [datasource:pagesFeed.dataSourceResultCount] * 2]" />
</else>
</if>
<if lhs="[var:removeHighlightPage]" operator="lt" rhs="[var:totalPagesInBook]">
<alpha value="0" target="STORYFOCUS-[var:removeHighlightPage]" />
<assign property="var:removeHighlightPage" value="[eval: [var:removeHighlightPage] + 1]" />
<play action="removeHighlight" />
</if>
</action>


I hope this helps!

Sorry for the late reply. Let me look into this today and I will get back to you.

Were you able to install fusebox okay? 4.1.1 is "up" from 4.0.3, so it should be able to run it. We have Nexus 7 test devices that we use without issue.

Each App is maintained as a separate file structure, so as long as your FTPS is set up to put the files in the correct app and you have a main.wire file you should be seeing something. Is your App showing up in the list in our fusebox app?

The examples found on the side of the editor are intended to extract and appear in your app project as additive files. However, you need to copy the code into your main.wire file. This main.wire file is what all apps look for to launch.

Check out these tutorials to give you some insight into the editor and fusebox.
