[Cartoweb-users] Plugin development issue: to which path dothetemplate (*.tpl) file points?

[Max Ueda]

Thanks again Oliver, now I understand how I have to
make the things work.

I misunderstood the concept of retrieving the data
from the form and throwing the values to the plugin
ClientPluginName.php file. That's why it wasn't
working, because I was not retrieving the values from
the form with FilterRequestModifier::getvalue()

Thanks you!

Max
