It sounds like the version that got uploaded on June 10th was not the version I upgraded to 4.8, because I fixed the compiler errors that posted here (thanks for helping out !)
**4.8 Upload, June 11th**
****I've uploaded my plugin again for the 4.8 build!****
I am definitely using the release version of 4.8, not a custom engine build.
Let me know how it goes!
HasSubstring compliments the functionality of FindSubstring.
FinsSubstring requires more inputs and returns an index within the source string.
My node, HasSubstring, requires only 1 input and only returns whether or not the supplied substring is in the source string.
I use the C++ version of HasSubstring the so I felt you would enjoy having it in BP as well!
**Example Usage ~ Search **
If you wanted to make a string-based search , that iterated over the contents of a list of UMG Texts, you can take the user's supplied search string and use my **HasSubstring **node to find the UMG Text widgets that contain the user's supplied search string.
Are you sure your in development or debug game for your solution configuration?
Iāve had issues with anti-virus/anti-malware in 4.8 with compiling a couple projects and heard similar.
The has substring node will be great! Mix it up with Get display name or get class -> get display name and you have a very powerful search ability/way to build logic based off classes in an inventory/crafting/equip system.
**I Did a BP-Only Packaging Just Fine**
1. I just made a BP-only game, third person template,
2. Copy and pasted my plugin into the project-level plugsin directory,
3. and packaged with no issues! (I did have Full Rebuld checked)
Potential Solution:
When you package, make sure you do a full rebuild each!
File -> Package Project -> Build Settings -> Full Rebuld
MainFrameActions: Packaging (Windows (64-bit)): UnrealBuildTool: [11/12] Link UE4-VictoryBPLibrary.lib
MainFrameActions: Packaging (Windows (64-bit)): UnrealBuildTool: [12/12] Link Project542352352.exe
MainFrameActions: Packaging (Windows (64-bit)): UnrealBuildTool: LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'C:\Program Files\Unreal Engine\4.8\Engine\Intermediate\Build\Win64\UE4\Development\Launch\PCLaunch.rc.res'

Great to hear from you tjaunreal!
Yay! Iām glad you like my new HasSubstring node !
As I mentioned before, I got the June 10th update working, but the one from the 11th appears to be the same file as the one from the 10th. The folders are exactly the same size, down to the byte. Also, do you know why the new uploads arenāt showing on the main list? (I have to delve into the file history for them to show up: http://puu.sh/ilHXw/9ee6014696.png )
Anyway, thanks for the repeated updates and communication, we <3 you!
Yeah itās blueprint/content-only project with full rebuild on, I got the same error on a new project. But it only happens when Iāve got your plugin enabled. I even tried reinstalling 4.8 and tried a new project again, same thing.
Hey quick question, Iām installing the plugin step by step but it just doesnāt work in the editor. It shows up on the plugin list, itās enabled, config line is added, editor restartedā¦ I tried it on different computers, same effect, cannot find any errors etc.
I used an older version of VP couple builds ago and it worked fine. Thanks for any advice!
The june 11th 7.91mb version shows up fine on the website, and loads/runs/etc. just fine in both C++ and BP based new and old projects for me.
As to the linking errors. I only got those when I had bad code as in errors, and to the response on that thread āI disabled the substance pluginā I have the 4.8 substance-ue4 plugin installed in my projects :S
I guess the wiki link was still broken when I downloaded it or something, tried it now with the mediafire link and it compiles fine.
Just tested downloading the 11th june 7.91mb version from the wiki and from the mediafire and the mediafire one appears to be newer then the wiki one, itās files are bigger and have newer dates then the wiki one.
Edit: Just tried it again with both links on new projects and now I suddenly canāt get it to work again.
Edit2: Found out that if I verify my 4.8 version I can package new projects until I attempt to package my 4.7.6 project which somehow breaks it for projects.
Iām having no problems with the wiki link on fresh projects or old. Make sure you select engine version -> 4.8 on any old projects first, and try deleting intermediate folders, or are you talkuing about just linking errors?
Reminder of my new node that I just released amidst the support posts
Dear Community,
Iāve made a new BP node for you!
HasSubstring compliments the functionality of FindSubstring.
FinsSubstring requires more inputs and returns an index within the source string.
My node, HasSubstring, requires only 1 input and only returns whether or not the supplied substring is in the source string.
I use the C++ version of HasSubstring the so I felt you would enjoy having it in BP as well!
