    Clean installation / Notepad 7.6.4 / SourceCookifier 0.7.3 via Plugins Admin / Folder structure:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\plugins\SourceCookifier\Config\SourceCookifier.languages.model.xml

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\plugins\SourceCookifier\doc\SourceCookifier.README.TXT

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\plugins\SourceCookifier\SourceCookifier.dll

    The icons from the sub folder “icons” are not display in the Notepad++ itself.

    @Meta-Chuh and all

    The reason for @bruderstein to include some advertisement into his Plugin Manager was the high server traffic generated by solely the download of the plugin list - 70 GB per month as he stated somewhere.

    His web hoster refused to continue that for free and GitHub wanted 80 Euro per month to host this file, which Dave was not willing to pay, additionally to all the work and time he invested in development of Plugin Manager.

    So Dave asked his employer to host the plugin list file. They have been willing to do that but wanted their logo to be placed into Plugin Manager, which was the reason for Don to kick it out of the Notepad++ downloads.

    Providing an all-time up-to-date plugin list for Plugins Admin will cause the same problem again. Let’s see how it will be solved…

    Furthermore, AFAIK Notepad++ checks the SHA-256 hash value of the plugin list’s DLL file against a value hard coded into each Notepad++ release. This will not work anymore in case of continous updating that file. When I see the security issues that have been raised in the EUFOSSA bug bounty program for Notepad++, I suspect that a completely unprotected plugin list would also be considered a security issue.

    welcome to the notepad++ community, @Jeff-C

    nppftp versions 0.28.1 upwards, for example version 0.28.3 (released 11 days ago), have addressed various connection issues, which might or might not improve your current connection experience.

    if you are on a version below 0.28.3, you can update nppftp manually:

    download and extract a newer NppFTP-x64.zip or NppFTP-x86.zip from >>> here <<<.
    (depending on whether you are using a 64 or 32 bit version of notepad++)

    open up your notepad++ plugins folder.
    (or plugins\NppFTP folder if you are on notepad++ 7.6.x)

    replace your old NppFTP.dll with the newer version, extracted from the NppFTP-x__.zip file.

    @Tod-Mar

    When I started to develop plugins for Notepad++ the following links have been helpful:

    How to develop a plugin or a lexer
    Messages and notifications
    Sources of plugin interface
    Scintilla documentation

    Regarding toolbar buttons

    The handling of toolbar buttons is totally transparent to a plugin developer because they work like a menu entry.

    A plugin developer has to fill an array at plugin’s startup that contains structs of type FuncItem. Every array element describes a menu entry of the plugin (text, click handler function, menu command id, Checked state, and keyboard shortcut).

    Notepad++ queries a pointer to this array at a certain time in the startup process. It generates the menu entry of the plugin in the Plugins menu, adds for every array element a submenu entry and fills the menu command id member of the array elements. So you know the menu command ids of your menu entries.

    If you want to have a toolbar button you have to hook the NPPN_TB_MODIFICATION event sent by Notepad++ to your plugin. In the handler of this event you have to fill a struct of type toolbarIcons (please note: you have to fill only one of its two members, either hToolbarBmp or hToolbarIcon but it seems only the first one works). The bitmap whose handle you provide has to be in a 8 bits-per-pixel palletized format (max. 256 colors) and its size has to be 16x16 pixels. Then you can send a NPPM_ADDTOOLBARICON event to Notepad++ where you provide the menu command id of the menu entry which you want to connect with your toolbar button and a pointer to the toolbarIcons struct you filled before.

    More news. After getting 24 32-bit Plug-ins working on Windows 7, I renamed the Program Files>Notepad++ folder on XP to “Notepad++ Org”, copied the whole Program Files>Notepad++ folder tree structure to XP from my Windows 7 box, and got 21 of the 24 Plug-ins to work on XP. The only problem is now, that I do not have a “Plug-in Manager” or “Plug-in Admin” that works on XP with Notepad++ V7.6.4. I can technically only install “Plug-in Manager” on XP, whereas I cannot even install “Plug-in Admin” on XP. However even if I install “Plug-in Manager”, “Plug-in Manager” cannot manager the Plug-ins running under Notepad++ V7.6.4, since V7.6.4 uses a different installation configuration. So my option now is to install the 32-bit Plug-ins on the Windows 7 box and then copy same to the XP box, and if they work then great, if not then bad luck hey? All you have to do, if the 32-bit Plug-ins do not work on XP, is to answer yes when asked if you wish to remove for compatibility reasons, or delete the incompatible Plug-in name folder under the Program Files/notepad++\plugins folder, e.g. C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins\csvquery to remove the 32-bit “csvquery” Plug-in. I hope that what I have learned is of some help to someone. Cheers from Aussie mate and happy Notepad++ing hey? :-)

    @klaus-isbruch-dieboldnixdorf

    thanks for reporting back so quickly too ;-)

    glad you got it working using the official portable version.
    it is always recommended to use the official portable version only, as it is created by the developers, implementing all their own recent code changes.

    all other 3rd party releases might miss some code changes when packaging, leading to unexpected behaviour.

    you can always download the latest official portable versions from here:
    https://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/
    (choose the zip package)

    It appears that XML Tools has v2.4.11.0 released. Does that newer version fix the issue? If not, does the issue exist in the XML Tools’s open or closed issues? If not, you might want to add it.

    @Eko-palypse

    I use regex in npp as a normal text cleaning. removing unwanted text, breaking lines at certain places “, ; . etc.”, joining them back after certain processing.

    I don’t use regex in pythonscript, because I don’t know much of pythonscript.

    several things I do is repetitive, I have to do the same set, with slight changes for numbers, etc., to break the text again and again, and join back again and again after processing, that’s why I had thought to make pythonscripts for repeated use, and I had installed the plugin.

    But I tried for somedays and couldn’t make much headway so I gave up. Now only one pythonscript is there for repeated things.

    some day I will gather courage again to learn pythonscript, till then it is find-replace regex on text.

    @Bill-Florac154 said:

    I can’t seem to get the maker images in the correct place to load correctly. I assume this is due to the ever changing location of the plugin files.

    The Bookmark Manager plugin needs an update to adopt the new plugins directory structure.

    The marker images are located in a directory named images. This directory can not be placed in the same directory like the DLL file of the plugin itself. It has to be stored under <Notepad++-installation-directory>\plugins instead.
