Unable to See Custom Mode in Mission Planner

I added a new mode to ArduPlane. I can see that I succesfully added the mode via console but yet I cannot see it in MissionPlanner. I added my mode to the necessary place in the parametermetadatabackup.xml file and I also tried downloading older versions of MP.

Did you add the mode to mission planner?

Using an older version will never fix anything like that.

ParaMeterMetaDatabackup.xml is no longer used.
You have to modify the vehicle-specific XML in C:\ProgramData\Mission Planner folder. (note ProgramData is a hidden folder)
After modifying it you have to make the XML and the corresponding .gz file read-only otherwise MP will redownload and update them.
