Mysterious plug ins

  • I’m using 2.1.2

    My plug ins are uploaded into my plug in’s file through File zilla – but I don’t see them in my admin plug in area, only the Akismet ( which I activated) and the Hello Dolly, (Which I won’t).

    Where did those plug ins go?

  • Be sure they are structured correctly and you do not have double folders or a single php file in a folder.
    Should be like:
    wp-content/plugins/pluginfolder/pluginfiles
    or if only a single php file:
    wp-content/plugins/pluginfile.php

    Hmmm – here is what I see with my Kramer plug in. It’s in my plug in folder, but not showing up in my plug in manager…

    /public_html/wp-content/plugins/kramer/kramer/

    I only see one php file…

    What’s missing?

    Like this:

    /public_html/wp-content/plugins/kramer/kramer.php
                                        kramer.pot

    One kramer folder with 2 files inside.

    Yes – there is actually two files, php and a pot and then a ‘latest version txt’ and a ‘read me.’

    You may be talking right past me but I’m still stumped as to why the upload worked but I am not seeing it in my plug in manager. Will I ordinarily need to go in a monkey around with the files to get them to appear?

    By the way – thanks!

    I activated my akismet OK…

    You have 2 kramer folders. That will not work. Delete the one that is empty. If they are both populated, delete either one.

    The Kramer.php file has 37556
    Kramer.pot file has 5810
    Latest ver. txt has 14
    Read me has 3783

    That’s the whole file!

    OK, let’s start over.
    When you unzipped the kramer.zip your zip program created an extra folder which you uploaded – it happens all the time.
    What you want to do is delete the 2 kramer folders on your site.
    Now, with Filezilla create a kramer folder inside of your wp-content/plugins folder.Then uplaod kramer.php and kramer.pot to the kramer folder.
    It will be like this:
    /public_html/wp-content/plugins/kramer/the 2 kramer files

    Yu solved it – that’s two tonight!

    Here’s another one for you – my blog partner has signed in, given himself a log in, but when he goes to write a post, he only gets the code option, as opposed to both the visual and the code like me.

    He can’t write in code – what can he do to get the same options as I?

    We’re both seen as Admin on the site, will that screw things up?
