Updated to 7.6.6, and now none of my plugins load

In case of the NppExec plugin

So if one goes to the “repository” link for NppExec, from the PluginsAdmin .json file (see this thread ) one may download the zip file for NppExec. Creating a NppExec folder under Plugins folder and unzipping the zip file into that seems to create all the needed files/folders. Not so hard.

@Alan-Kilborn

very off topic: you’ve got a new AK avatar logo. didn’t you like your tribal tattoo style logo any more ? i thought it was awesome.

@Meta-Chuh

you’ve got a new AK avatar logo

I do? I was experimenting with a new one last week, but it didn’t seem to “take”. Here’s what I see, I think it is the “tribal” one:

thanks for the screenshot.
here’s what i see now:

i noticed something funny last week:
on my iphone your new logo showed up, but on edge and safari, your old logo appeared.

i was close to asking you how you managed to have a different avatar for mobile views ;-)
but now i guess it was just cached somehow.

since yesterday, i see your new logo on all my devices, but i didn’t clear the caches manually.
how does it look on your phone ?

I see the same as @Meta-Chuh. AFAIK, I never had a cache problem: once I saw the fantastic-4/avengers-style logo, it never went back to “tribal”.

I don’t know. I don’t have my phone set up to do the Community. Gotta set it down sometimes! :)

I guess I am stuck with the new avatar, even though everywhere I can see it in the Community site it is the old tribal style.

Hi, @alan-kilborn and All,

As @peterjones and @meta-chuh, I just see your new avatar, even when I consult the history of your posts over the past year !

Personally, I really loved your old tribal tattoo style logo ;-)

I think your old avatar seemed to be the wonderful result of a more careful search, done by a stylist !

No offense, but I mean, for a person like me, not skilled in the graphic arts, I could have imagined your new avatar, after a few tries, but certainly not the old one, which is quite subtle !

Cheers,

I’d certainly bring it back if I knew what to do to make that happen! :)

Maybe try uploading a dummy avatar, and then upload the tribal avatar again. We can let you know if it was successful or not, even if you never see a change in avatar. :-)

@Alan-Kilborn

there are two ways to change your avatar again, as long as you still have a local copy of your tribal avatar:

1) change your avatar at your primary account, like google, for all platforms you use.

2) change your avatar just for the notepad++ community:

click on your avatar at the top right of your screen.
then click at your name (Alan Kilborn), as seen at the screenshot below.
(… yes, i know it does not say Alan Kilborn there … 😉)
click on edit, as seen at the next screenshot:
click on change picture as seen at the next screenshot.
important note: do not press delete account under any circumstances. 😄
click on 'upload new pictureand select your desired avatar picture. once you're satisfied, hitsave changes`.

btw: i think you can also upload animated gifs as avatars here, like this “admin email” dude a while ago, just in case you want to play around a bit.
