Is there any way to show image thumbnail on homepage or recent discussion page or might be an plugin for this?
Looking for suggestions guys...
@MBFTOM said in Using puTTy to retrieve a plugin..:
[[email protected] ~]# npm install nodebb-plugin-registration-notification
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/nodebb-plugin-registration-notification
npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/nodebb-plugin-registration-notification
This indicates something went wrong with npm... nothing to do with NodeBB.
Try npm cache clean
and then npm i nodebb-plugin-registration-notification

It doesnt recognise the first, but the second command gives:

Plugin is installed now.
@julian its nowhere to be seen on my dashboard area, and its not on the acp area?
is there a step i need to do before it shows up?
i appreciate your help
@julian do the plugins have to be enabled via a certain line of code?
not showing on actice/inactive plugins.
thanks
Once installed you have to activate them in the ACP. Then rebuild NodeBB assets and restart NodeBB.
@julian plugin doesn't show under any of the lists in the ACP
@julian I've tried downloading it another way via FileZilla.. i have had a look at the Node_Modules folder which shows the Plugin (But none of the other plugins I have installed from the ACP? Something is very weird)
Also although plugin shows in this folder, its not in the Active, Inactive or Find Plugins menus
@MBFTOM You've installed it at the wrong location. It's installed in your root directory, whereas you should install it in the directory of the NodeBB installation (that is, where the starter script is also located). When you run "npm install [pluginname]" there, it'll work
Good luck!
@JasperNL thanks for that, now I know where I went wrong
Are you free to assist with where I find the Directory of the NodeBB install? Eg what folder I am looking for?
Forgive me if that's a noob question, I've not messed with anything like this before
Thanks @JasperNL
EDIT: Found it! Great assistance
