cannot convert app in Phonegap Build - error message "plugin unsupported"

cannot convert app in Phonegap Build - error message "plugin unsupported"

I am uploading the original code of Moodle mobile app from Github Moodlehq. I copy the link from moodlehq/moodlemobile-phonegapbuild (https://github.com/moodlehq/moodlemobile-phonegapbuild) to Phonegap Build. However, there is always an error message "plugin unsupported: net.tunts.webintent", as can be seen below. I tried both android and ios version of the code. They both have the same error messages. 

I use this method to convert code to apps many times before and it works fine. I hope someone can help me fix this problem as soon as possible.

This was due to the shutdown of the phonegap build repository. http://phonegap.com/blog/2016/10/13/pgb-repository-shutting-down/

You need to update config.xml and find ch.ti8m.documenthandler and net.tunts.webintent.

I am testing changing them to

<gap:plugin name="net.tunts.webintent" spec="https://github.com/Tunts/WebIntent.git" source="git" />

and

<gap:plugin name="ch.ti8m.documenthandler"  spec="https://github.com/ti8m/DocumentHandler.git" source="git" />


You can wait for a oficial new config.xml

Hi Romário,

Thank you very much for your reply! I downloaded the original code of Moodle mobile app and only changed ch.ti8m.documenthandler and net.tunts.webintent you mentioned in config.xml. It app is converted by Phonegap Build and works fine. However, there is another problem that the icon of the app is not shown. It should be the Moodle official logo but it is not. I tried the code of both ios and android version and they both have the same problem. I found this problem on Tuesday Nov 15, while it still worked fine the day before Nov 14. Could I know how to solve this problem, please?

I added above mentioned lines to the config.xml file. Application was successfully built using Phonegap, but when I try to install the app on android, installation ends with this message "App not installed".

This should be working now, sometime Phonegap Build comes with random issues.
