Does nothing Forces you to install another plugin

  • Developer explained what was going on when it was trying to install in another place. At first, I thought this was a shady plugin. I still think that the information should be transparent from the beginning before installation and later very well explained if it is trying to do something like to install itself in another directory as a MU plugin (which I didn’t even know existed).

    I raise my rating but still think all this should be explained well before so that once more users are not confused because of strange plugin behaviors if those are not very clearly advertised before.

    @mastix Sorry for the misunderstanding. The plugin does not ask you to install more software. The necessary software is already inside the plugin. However, to do things that the plugin does, it requires moving a file from /plugins folder to /mu-plugins folder. Actually, we could do it automatically, but we ask admins confirmation for that to make the process clear. For more information about mu-plugins folder, please read this article.

    Must Use Plugins

    @ioannup maybe it would help when the announcement text was a bit clearer. At first glance, it does indeed seem to suggest to need another plugin installed. Maybe describe it needs to place a file in the mu-plugins folder?
