Plugins Folder location ?
Jun 20, 2021 15:12


I know this is a bit of a dumb question, but where do you add the plugins folder to?

MMM,, Tried that, and looked in the Plugin (MOD Configuration page) and it was empty. But trying another fresh install, so will try again

did you add any plugins to the plugins folder? They need to be downloaded separately, plugins folder should look something like below, depending what plugins you add
You may also need to do a recycle to pick them up once added, Admin Menu | Reset App Pool

Yep tried that, well, with 1 plugin copied only. Even reset the web application pool on the host.

did you apply any dbs files for the plugins? The forum checks for existence of tables in the database to decide if certain plugins have been installed

No, didnt apply any dbs, and going through the files in the original plugins folder, can't see anything containing any db stuff. (

Question, looking at the folder structure within plugins.zip. Under Scripts, there is a sub folder called pluginjs, (which contains the scripts). Should these files go in the corresponding folder, i.e. scripts, content etc, and not just move the pluginjs/plugincss folders. If you open up the zip files, you'll see what i mean.

App_Data folder containing dbs files is missing from the zip, will sort out and update later
