Hello, glad you got it working. Just for reference, as @alfred mentioned, you will find PluginManager very useful. I also highly recommend you have a look at KanboardSupport as it shows all your folder permissions so you get to know more of your environment. > [@New Plugin: PluginManager](https://kanboard.discourse.group/t/new-plugin-pluginmanager/2492/): > > Hello all, finally this plugin has been released to revamp the plugins interface and provide you with more options and information about installed and available plugins. The plugin should show up in the official plugins directory soon.

This greatly helps with troubleshooting. I will release the plugin to the directory once I have added two sections, at the moment it is basic but it works. Will keep you informed of the progress. --- _[View the full topic](https://kanboard.discourse.group/t/unable-to-open-plugin-archive-there-is-no-plugin-loaded/2915)._
