These kind of questions best go in the SMILE help thread. We check it pretty regularly.

The answer is that items are PLMs. There are some in the landing site that you can use, go to the door that's behind a bunch of bomb blocks in the mountain and you'll see an S and some arrows. Those are PLMs. Right click on one and click on "type", and you can select what type of PLM to change it to from the scrolling list in the pop up. Pay attention to the text file at the bottom to make sure the PLM doesn't need any special values, and also for items, the "High/low" in the upper right. For items, the high should be 00 or 01, and the low needs to be different for each item. If an item shares the same high/low combination with another, then collecting one will cause the other to disappear.

Also, if you ever need more PLMs in a room, don't use the PLM+/- function as that will likely cause a crash somewhere (same thing with enemies). We'll teach you how to repoint or swap pointers so you don't destroy any rooms if you end up needing it.
