Sorry, I mean players can set marks without voting, plugin saves it and rating of campaign is avarege value of players marks. IDK, maybe it's stupid idea )
I think rating is not objective a bit, because now, for example, players vote for mark 5, another players vote for 2, as a result rating is 2.

How do I add custom campaigns to "Custom maps" section? I install custom campaigns .VPKs in the /left4dead2/addons/ and they all end up in the "Test maps" section. "Custom maps" section is not even displayed in the plugin menu. Please help me, how can I install custom campaigns on the server, so they will be displayed in the Custom maps?

Run client, enter !maps, select desired map, than "Move to another group", select group.

Or for mass-change:

Go to configs/MapChanger_info.txt and change "group" to 0, 1 or 2 (index of category) without map change when client logged-in, than enter command "sm_maps_reload" or do the same with the server powered off.

I opened the file, but there is no group value, only "info" and a comment not to touch this file (screenshot). How do I properly add values here to mass move all campaigns from "test" to "custom campaigns"?

// don't touch this file
"info"
{
"group" "2"
}

Like that?

You should run your server with this plugin at least.
File will be automatically populated with all campaigns.

Thank you for your reply. But, it turns out that for each campaign it must be done manually. I decided to just rename the test maps section to custom campaigns.

By the way, why is there a need for a section with test maps? Why don't they go straight to the custom campaigns section by default?

The matter of convenience. The game of words. You can call it as you wish. That is why everything exists in translation file.
There are 3 categories. All of them are custom campaigns:
- Test maps
- Custom map set # 1
- Custom map set # 2

By design, when you add new map, it is considered as "Untested map" (unknown new map, may contain bugs and so so).
So when one fully test it, he move it to the appropriate group or leave it as is.

If you entirely replace all maps, or install them first time, you can open MapChanger_info.txt and execute "Replace all" operation in notepad:
Search what: "group" "0"
Replace by: "group" "1"
So, all maps will change its category simultaneously.

I get it now. Thank you so much for your help and explanation!
