1st Time Developing a Plugin Support - Technologx - 2015-12-11

I'm trying to make a plugin like the Facebook like plugin but I'm wanting it to link to the users chrome extension directory location and have a image with it but I have a error 0n line 89 and I can't figure out what's going on. Any ideas on what the problem is and how to fix it?

Here's the code:

RE: 1st Time Developing a Plugin Support - .m. - 2015-12-11

change 2 occurrences of settings['bburl'] to settings[\'bburl\']

details => Escaping quotation marks in PHP

It had to be / instead of \
Now I get this on the forum itself:
   

RE: 1st Time Developing a Plugin Support - .m. - 2015-12-11

backslash (\) should be used before the quote mark (')

RE: 1st Time Developing a Plugin Support - SvePu - 2015-12-11

Please try this:
function cextension()
{
   global $mybb, $templates,  $cextension;
   $cextension = "<br /><div align=\"center\"><a href=\"'.$mybb->settings['bburl'].'\"><img src=\"'.$mybb->settings['bburl'].'/images/chrome.png\" alt=\"crome.png\" /></a></div><br />";
}

That worked now I'm getting 2 Facebook like buttons with no chrome button.
I also have double settings options in the ACP:

There are some issues in your plugin script:

How do I get rid of the double settings?
Also it's still showing 2 Facebook like buttons on the front end.

RE: 1st Time Developing a Plugin Support - SvePu - 2015-12-12

Please deactivate the new plugin version once...then the doubled settings also will be deleted.

Maybe the chrome.png in images folder is a facebook button.

This is the image I have in the images folder:
   

I've tried deactivating the plugin and remove it from my website directory and it still shows up in the ACP now I have triple Chrome Extension settings.
