LiveCode Forums.

I have a few plugins that I am attempting to install, but for some reason (something so simple) they are not appearing in Developments > Plugins

I followed the instructions here:

http://revolution.screenstepslive.com/s ... the-PlugIn

however, no matter what I do.. plugins failed to show.

I had trouble with this as well. I got help. Make sure you....

2. Save your plugin stack in a folder named "Plugins" in a folder named "LiveCode". A good place is the "documents" folder:
~/Documents/LiveCode/Plugins/

3. You need to quit Rev.

4. Relaunch Rev, and choose Plugin Settings from the Development->Plugins menu.

5. Select your plugin stack from the popup list at the top of the Plugins Manager, and choose the appropriate radio control. For example, "Open plugin when: Revolution starts".

thank you for your quick reply.

I followed your Steps 2, 3 & 4.

When I get to step 5, bmlsSQLYogaPlugin.rev for example does not appear in the drop down menu where revTabRuler is.

also, in the Send message to plugin list, it does not appear there either

hmmm

you also need to set the path to your plugin folder in the general part of the settings.

Right.

In the "files and memory" pane in the LC preferences,in the "user extensions" area, navigate to the ENCLOSING FOLDER, which is "livecode" (not the "plugins" folder).
