Features

Create Plugins with ScriptMaster Advanced

ScriptMaster Advanced lets you convert your favorite ScriptMaster modules into FileMaker plugins, ready for deployment on both Mac and Windows.

Modular with 80+ Plugin Functions

ScriptMaster is a modular plugin, which means that instead of installing all 80+ plugin functions, you use a FileMaker file that comes with ScriptMaster to select which modules you wish to register. Once registered, they appear in your list of functions.

Custom Modules Available

360Works is available to create custom modules suited to your specific needs. In addition, if you are familiar with Java, you can create your own expansion modules.

Included in the Portfolio Bundle

Receive an Enterprise license, which allows for server-side use and unlimited number of users, along with all products from 360Works when you purchase the Portfolio Bundle.

ScriptMaster is Available for Free

ScriptMaster is a modular plugin, which means that instead of installing all 80+ plugin functions, you use a FileMaker file that comes with ScriptMaster to select which modules you wish to register. Once the modules are registered, they appear in your list of FileMaker functions.

In addition to the many existing modules that come free with ScriptMaster, 360Works is available to create custom modules suited to your specific needs. In addition, if you are familiar with Java, you can create your own expansion modules, although you do not need to know Java in order to use the many free modules that come with ScriptMaster.

You can distribute this generated plugin royalty-free with all of your custom solutions.

*ScriptMaster users who generate their own plug-ins should check the updated ScriptMaster documentation to comply with FileMaker 18 changes.

Q&A

360Works plugins are compatible with the FileMaker 16 platform and higher.
All of our plugins are designed to run on Mac and on Windows. All system requirements are the same as those of FileMaker. As long as you meet FileMaker's minimum requirements, you can run our plugins. Please reference the FileMaker operating system requirements for all versions.

Our plugins are supported in FileMaker Cloud 1.17 and 1.18, but FileMaker Cloud 2 does not support any plugins. You can still use the plugins in FileMaker Pro accessing a solution hosted on FileMaker Cloud 2, but server side scripts utilizing plugins will not work.

If you purchase the Enterprise License (see below), then you will be able to use the plugin with the FileMaker Web Publishing Engine. This means that when you use our plugins in your FileMaker scripts, they will work the same way with Instant Web Publishing (IWP) or WebDirect. It also means that your Custom Web Publishing applications (with XSLT, PHP, or any other web technology) can call FileMaker scripts that use our plugins.

Yes, all of our plugins work in FileMaker runtime solutions, just copy the plugin to the runtime's Extensions folder.

Most of our plugins are available in 3 licenses: a demo version which works for 2 hours every time you launch FileMaker, a Workgroup license for 10 or fewer users, and an Enterprise license for unlimited users within a single organization.

If you'd like to add plugin functionality to a mobile solution, there are a number of options available. Plugins cannot be installed directly on a iPhone or iPad, but you can trigger a script on a machine that does have the plug-in installed. Using FileMaker Server, you can have routine scripts that will process all the outstanding function calls. For an example on how to do this, see this article on accomplishing this with Plastic. Alternatively you could integrate RemoteScripter to trigger server side scripts.
