@nesta99 Here it is. The instructions are just a few posts above. This is with installers. I think the process is a bit different if you do it without installers.

Hello everyone. After code sign the plugin I'm still not able to open my plugin on Logic Pro. I have the latest version of logic on a Monterey OS. Is it required to notarise the plugin before making it work o a daw?
Thanks

In Logic almost certainly, other DAWs might be more tolerant.

@d-healey Thanks so much. Another question: I'm having an issue with dealing with the packaging, most precisely on the destination folder:

As shown in the picture above I wasn't able to place the .component in the Audio/Plugins/Component folder.
Now when the end user will install the product, the .component fill will be place in the wrong place, making it complicated.
Any solution?

@nesta99 Are you using Whitebox Packages?

@nesta99 Yep, you need to setup your install paths in there.

I have NEVER had to notarize any plugin anywhere - codesign - yes but notarize no, I strongly suspect its not that its not notarized, have you run auval against your compiled component plugin?

[Sawer]

@d-healey Ok, thanks.
How can I Kindly do it, pretty new to whitebox?

[Sawer]

@lindon To be honest, I dont know what auval is and since I never remember to use it, then no.

The documentation is probably the best resource - http://s.sudre.free.fr/Software/documentation/Packages/en_2017/index.html

Thanks man.

@d-healey So based on my understanding , on the path section, I just need to put this /Library/Audio/Plugins/Components , right?

No idea, I haven't used it for over a year. Just try it and see, and then share your wisdom.

run auval everytime on every AU plugin:

Audio Unit Development Fundamentals

Explains how to use Core Audio frameworks and the Core Audio SDK to create audio units.

@lindon Yeah true. Plugin not signed yet. I tried but not working ...

It says : "no identity found" . Any Idea?

sounds like you dont have the plugin ID set up correctly.. (as a guess)

[Sawer]

@lindon Ok thanks. Not finding anything specific related to this, neither a solution to this problem. Any idea? I got all the certificates in my keychain with their keys password.
