That's it! How do I make a custom About Box using Plugn'Script? I want to add some info and also add the VST trademark attribution.

If I can't do that, how might I add a special page for that info, accessed by a button or something on the plug-in?

It has not been tested with PnS in details (and it's not documented yet), but I think simply adding an about.xml skin file in an "About" subdirectory of the skin of your exported plug-in should do the trick (you can have a look at any of our plug-ins for an example)

Thanks for that. I have a suggestion for you also. Maybe you should consider adding the VST trademark attribution (and maybe the Logo) to the already included About Box for VST plug-ins at the plug-in "build" export dialog, or something, for beginner plug-ins builders. They don't have the option to do so unless they go through all of the steps I have asked about, and it is required by Steinberg (though I can't recall if it is for open source builds). Just a thought.

Thanks for your help.

Or maybe just the option to add the attribution and Logo might be useful.
