Apparently, the fever plugin that was part of my Tiny Tiny RSS installation is 'gone' - it's not even in the backups (I just checked the folder...)

necrevistonnezr

Ok, managed to restore to a functional version by manually recreating all files and folders in the plugins directory...
Why weren't the backed up?

nebulon

They are in appsdata so they will get backed up. Can you check if they are backed up now after your fix or if the issue persists?

necrevistonnezr

@nebulon
Yep, it's backed up now. Weird.

necrevistonnezr

@nebulon
I realized something now: Plugins in /app/date/plugins.local/ (where the software author fox wants user plugins to go to) are not recognized in the Cloudron version of TT-RSS....

nebulon

What do you mean by this? The plugins would still be updated if they are located within /app/data/. Do you mean manually installed plugins are now located in some other folder which the app does not include?

necrevistonnezr

@nebulon
/app/data has two folders for plugins: "plugins" (system plugins) and "plugins.local" (user plugins).

According to https://git.tt-rss.org/fox/tt-rss/wiki/Plugins:

Installing plugins Copy plugin folder to tt-rss/plugins.local then activate it in the settings panel. Plugin folder name should correspond to plugin class name defined in (plugin)/init.php, i.e. Af_ExamplePlugin should be copied to plugins.local/af_exampleplugin.

If I have the a plugin folder in "plugins.local" it's not recognized in TT-RSS on Cloudron, only if the plugin folder is in "plugins".

nebulon

Oh I see what you mean, it misses the symlink from /app/code/plugins.local to /app/data/plugins.local?

necrevistonnezr

Yep!

@necrevistonnezr Ah, I wasn't aware of this local plugin directory. I will fix up the app. This is actually really nice of ttrss since it simplifies app packaging.
