normal plugins are not working

Yes the folder he sent me has the yml, and it says 3.0.0-Alpha5

 

1. Devtools must be a .phar file in order to work and for it to load any other folder plugins
2. each plugin folder must have a plugin.yml file in it to be recognised as a plugin
3. The api of the plugin is CaSe sensitive, so you will need 3.0.0-ALPHA5 instead of 3.0.0-Alpha5

 

Yes his plugin.yml has 3.0.0-ALPHA5 it has everything necessary, this is why were both puzzled

 

you are using the latest devtools from here? https://poggit.pmmp.io/ci/pmmp/PocketMine-DevTools/~

 

I have 1.1.3

 

Are you sure you have the latest build of DevTools? 1.1.3 has been the version for quite a few builds

 

Can you post a link of the latest of them?

 

what I need is the Folder plugin loader actaully

 

nvm

 

Guys I have everything I need, is it because its a beta build?

 

Can you go in your server folder and run the command "tree plugins" (Windows) or "ls -R plugins/" (Linux) on the terminal?

 

Yes and it brings up all the plugins I have. Why?

 

well, can you post a screenshot?

 

Anyone? I would like to fix this asap, its only recognizing phar files as plugns and nothing else

 

Can you post the contents of plugin.yml (in a code block)? Invalid name usually means... the name is invalid. Maybe when copying with a poor text editor someone added some invisible/invalid characters to the name of the plugin?

 

There's your issue. Your files/folders should be directly in a folder, not a folder inside of a folder.

 

that's the issue of downloading the zipped repositories and simply unzipping them
