I just cloned the latest notepad-plus-plus source code from git and built it successfully in VS2022
don’t have the Plugins Admin option in the Plugins menu
You didn’t ask for the smart-ass answer, but here it is: Step thru the code (in the relevant section, of course) and you should be able to see why it isn’t appearing. :-)

@Alan-Kilborn haha ok I’ll start digging in. I guess what I was mainly wanting to confirm is that it’s supposed to be there in the first place after doing a git clone and .NET build.
-
So you’re probably doing the default build of the DEBUG version of Notepad++?
If so, that’s looking for the .json version of the the plugins list in order to determine if it should show Plugins Admin; see HERE.
As I said, since you apparently have the power, you can set a breakpoint and look at code there and see how it is looking for what/where.

@Alan-Kilborn Many thanks for the tip. It looks like I was missing both the json file (I just had the dll in there) and the updater (updater/gup.exe). Looks like I need to clone and build the updater as well.

After TextFX disappeared following NPP upgrade, I found this post, which noted there’s now a TextFX2 (which works for me!).
Wondering if someone might update the Plugins List to show the original is no longer compatible and add an entry for the TextFX2 and link to repo, etc. ?
Is that the responsibly of the plugin developer to add and what about the deprecation ?
I’d submit a PR, but have no idea what the appropriate notations would be.
-
Also, how does TextFX2 get onto the Plugins Admin list of plugins? Is there something @rainman74 needs to do?

Yes. it is up to the author/maintainer of a plugin to decide whether or not to add it to Plugins Admin.

The plugin:
“Customize Toolbar” 5.3
is causing NPP 8.4.8 to not display the menu icons.

Can you be more specific as to what “menu icons” you are talking about?

Apologies if this isn’t the place to report obsolete plugins in the list. If it isn’t, please direct me to the proper place :)
The plugin NppQrCode (v0.0.0.1) can not be installed (on x64 atleast). It gives the following error:
Also, the homepage URL in the description for the plugin is dead (I’m not allowed to post actual links, but it’s
github(dot)com/vladk1973/NppQrCode) -
A new version (0.0.0.2) has been available since Notepad++ 8.5.8:
If you’re stuck with 8.5.7 or something older, you can also get it directly from GitHub.
