Would it be better for me to somehow rename and repackage my customized version of the theme as something other than “default” or “kubrick” before re-uploading it? If so, what would that entail?

Thanks all; tonight I realized that I must have been looking in the wrong /wp-content/plugins/ directory, since the one I’d been uploading into didn’t have Akismet or Hello Dolly, the default WP plugins that were showing up in my plugins manager. So, sure enough, I found another /wp-content/plugins/ directory on my server, uploaded to there, unzipped there, and found the plugins in my plugins manager. Case solved; I hope this helps someone else avoid the same mistakes. Thanks again to all!

Deleted the .zip folder from wp-content/plugins/, refreshed the WP admin plugins page, nothing yet.

I just noticed it missing in the original filepath intended. It’s back as of this writing. Try https://madeinhead.org/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/xmasb-quotes/

And yet, it doesn’t show up in the admin plugins page. (Yet.)

Hi guys,

I deleted the /xmasb-quotes folder from wp-content/plugins/, used cpanel to upload the zip, then extract into wp-content/plugins/xmasb-quotes/–I made sure it didn’t have a double folder–and still no luck. Then I thought, well, the creator said to make sure it’s in wp-plugins/xmasbquotes/, so I took wp-content/plugins/xmasb-quotes/ and renamed it wp-content/wp-plugins/xmasbquotes/. Signed out and back into wp-admin, still no luck!!
