Trying to add a "header" button to Button Bar 1.6

Hi all,
Running 2.1.1, button bar 1.6, Markdown input format.
I'd like to add a header button, and after digging through this related post, did the following:
First: Modified the end of /plugins/NewButtonBar/design/buttonbar.css to read:
.ButtonBar .ButtonBarBold { background-position: 0px 0px; } .ButtonBar .ButtonBarItalic { background-position: 0px -24px; } .ButtonBar .ButtonBarHeader { background-position: 0px -48px; } /** .ButtonBar .ButtonBarUnderline { background-position: 0px -48px; } */ .ButtonBar .ButtonBarStrike { background-position: 0px -72px; } .ButtonBar .ButtonBarCode { background-position: 0px -96px; } .ButtonBar .ButtonBarImage { background-position: 0px -120px; } .ButtonBar .ButtonBarUrl { background-position: 0px -144px; } .ButtonBar .ButtonBarQuote { background-position: 0px -168px; } .ButtonBar .ButtonBarSpoiler { background-position: 0px -192px; }
(Underline is disabled for Markdown, so I just used the underline values.)
Second: Added a header.png to /plugins/NewButtonBar/design/images/
Third: Added a few lines to /plugins/NewButtonBar/js/buttonbar.js...
case 'header': $(TextArea).insertRoundTag('##',markdownOpts); break;
This is around line 565, in the PerformMarkdown function.
(I also added a similar set of lines under PerformHtml (for h2), just for the heck of it.)
The problem: after enabling the plugin (I remembered this time ), the header button does not appear on the toolbar. Feels like I missed a step somewhere.

You need to modify the view to spit out the button markup. Should be in
/plugins/ButtonBar/views/buttonbar.php

you left crucial information out. what is the name of this file.
if it is buttonbar.php, it will most likely read the view in
https://github.com/vanilla/vanilla/blob/2.1/plugins/ButtonBar/views/buttonbar.php
it doesn't matter if the old buttonbar is disabled, it will most likely read the wrong view if you have duplicate files, if you don't specify exactly what folder to look in, which is not always done.
not in NewButtonBar/views/buttonbar.php
but in buttonbar case $View = Gdn::Controller()->FetchView('buttonbar','','plugins/ButtonBar');
https://github.com/vanilla/vanilla/blob/2.1/plugins/ButtonBar/class.buttonbar.plugin.php#L95
whereas some plugins use this
$view = $this->GetView('blahblah.php');
which finds the first view it can find.
did you make sure to change the classes in your new plugin and rename all the files, and zip up the old plugin (in case you didn't name everything correctly), so it doesn't look at the wrong view
In cloning buttonbars you need to rename all code and files properly if you want it to work correctly.

Ahh. Thank you. Let me see if that sorts it.
Yep, that got it sorted out - somewhere it must have still been pointing at the old version of Button Bar. Once I got that out of the way (and edited the sprites.png), it worked!
