Hi,
I'm really excited about the plugin database and the ability to download plugins automatically.
However, for one plugin the structure of the downloaded zip file is wrong.
Here is the link to the plugin:
https://moodle.org/plugins/filter_html5avtomp4/versions
When I download and unzip the zip file, the resulting folder should have the name of the plugin "html5avtomp4", but it is "ndunand-moodle-filter_html5avtomp4-4a7f8c9".
Is there a reason for this or is it just a bug?
Best regards
Andreas
There was an issue in June/July 2021 affecting folder names for plugins, see MDLSITE-6525. It looks like this plugin was released during that time. So you just need to rename the extracted folder to html5avtomp4 (in the filter folder).
Thank you,
Moodle doesn't seem to trust the directory name in the zip either. In core\update\code_manager::get_plugin_zip_root_dir() only the first directory found is used, no matter what the name is.
That's exactly what I'm doing now.
So, problem solved .
Best regards
Andreas
