@diaber did you insert the snippet into your octoprint gcode script?
You might want to add a button in settings...."Add to GCODE scripts".
@jneilliii I don't want to make an assumption of where it should be inserted. Though a wizard could be a good way to inform.
I deleted my rubbish...
Seems I missed the point... better say: The start of the thread

Hello, I do not know where I should insert the code, and what is the code to insert, I have not seen much more information, it may have been passed.
If I go into plugin settings in Octoprint it says "Insert the following into any GCODE Script:"
it then appears in red:
{% snippet 'doSmartPreheat'%}
and inside an editable window more code appears:
; Wait for bed to reach 80% of required temp then set to required temp
{% if printer_profile.heatedBed%}
M190 S {{(plugins.smartpreheat.bed * 0.8) | round}}
...
Which one should i use? Or are they both?
if I insert the code in red, inside the gcode file to print, it does nothing, if I insert the code that appears inside the editable window, it gives error.
I guess I'm not putting it where I should, or it's just not putting it in that file.
Thank you
Likely
Settings -> GCODE Scripts -> "Before print job starts"
Thank you very much, now it works fine,
Greetings
I have the same issue. Version 0.0.4 is "installed". Does installing the plugin supposed to make Octoprint do anything or is it required to copy the starting script to Settings -> GCODE Scripts -> "Before print job starts"?
It is not clear to me how this plugin is supposed to be installed.
is it required to copy the starting script to Settings -> GCODE Scripts -> "Before print job starts"?
Yes
I cannot make it work, I added the line and in Terminal I get:
Changing monitoring state from "Starting" to "Printing"
Send: {% snippet 'doSmartPreheat' %}
Send: N1 M140 S56*87
Recv: echo:Unknown command: "{% snippet 'doSmartPreheat' %}"
Recv: ok
v0.0.6
Where did you add the line?

It needs to be added to the gcode scripts within OctoPrint, not just in your gcode, as outlined in the screenshots in the plugin's homepage

Sorry, I read it before and now and I still have no idea what is that about. From Cura I get *.gcode file. I can add there a line. If I have to use gcode generator build into Octoprint then I will not use it.
after a while
you mean OctoPrint Settings > GCode Scripts > Before print job starts and put "{% snippet 'doSmartPreheat' %}" into the window? So why it is not written so?
It is:
Looks like you missed the comment right above your first one too:
Well, "before print job starts" I have also in Cura, so not everything is obvious 
On the other hand, not everyone runs Cura...
