Plugin fileStorage Extension

[Michael.J]

What is IPS recommended approach for supporting the fileStorage extension in plugins? I've used "core_Theme" in the past for 1 or 2 images but what should we do for plugins that will store quite a few images?

We can't use extensions on plugins, unfortunately.

I mean, add extensions to the plugin. You can probably hook somewhere to make it work; never tried.

My recommendation is if you have a true need to use extensions, make an application for now. Plugins may (or may not) get extensions support at some point, but they don't have it presently.

We have some changes in the pipeline that will ease this a bit in an upcoming major release too, but that wont help you now.
