Phonegap App with cordova, can't install plugin

Question

So i have this Phonegap app and i need to install the cordova dialogs plugin and, since i'm very noobish in this kinds of things, i just can't get it done.

I tried installing with the "cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-dialogs" command but i would get a error saying the browser platform was not installed. After a few tries and google searches i managed to "install" the plugin but it still not working.

I can see the plugin on my plugins folder, but on the Phonegap website it says i don't have the dialogs plugin.

I noticed that when i use "cordova plugin" it says i have the dialogs plugin but with "-dev". What does this mean?

I have some prints for you guys to understand better:

Can you help me please? I'm really stressing out with this and i have no idea how to fix it

When you work with the build service of phonegap you don't need to use the cordova/phonegap command line.

You just have to manage the config.xml file.

For add you'r plugin just add this to you'r config.xml plugin part file :

<plugin name="cordova-plugin-dialogs"/>
