I notice that in \MO2\logs\mo_interface.log, I am getting this error message:
[2024-04-29 13:42:09.531 I] [common_log.py:20] [PluginFinder] Checking for Mod Organizer plugin. [2024-04-29 13:42:09.783 I] [common_log.py:20] [PluginFinder] No Mod Organizer plugin found.
I have deleted, rebooted MO2, and reinstalled by copying the contents of Plugin Finder 2.0.1-59869-2-0-1-1701701160.zip in to the plugin's folder.
The message suggested to me that either MO2 could not find the full installation of PluginFinder itself, or that it can't see ANY Mod Organizer plugins.
I actually have a few plugins installed under Settings > Plugins:
Plugin Finder sees your plugins I have installed like the awesome Curation Club and Plugin Finder itself, but shouldn't it see the others? Or are they unsupported? I am mostly just concerned about everything working right. If this is how its currently supposed to work, then I am OK.
I do see that under the MO2 drop down menus at the top > Tools > Tool Plugins, there are 5 things, but not the plugins I list here.
It searches for plugins that it can manage and marks them as installed. If they are already marked as installed or none of them are in PF, then it'll say it can't find any.
Errors always explicitly say that they are an error, that's not this. If you install a plugin supported by PF manually, you'll see you get a different message the first time you run MO2 afterwards and then it goes back to this again.
Your newest version is completely broken due to a syntax error in the plugins\pluginfinder\plugin\pluginfinder\modules\pluginfinder_install.py file. With this issue none of the installation buttons will work and you won't be able to install any plugins. The solution to this is to replace line 69: self._installFromFile(str(tempName), pluginId) with self.installFromFile(str(tempName), pluginId) (basically just remove that underscore).
If anyone is having issues with the latest version, you can fix it by doing that yourself until the author fixes it.
Replaced it, seems like it was the result of some unfinished cleanup after testing! If you come across anything else, feel free to drop a message in discord and I'll usually see it pretty quickly!
No, but you can get the download url from the directory to make a meta file; https://github.com/Kezyma/ModOrganizer-Plugins/blob/main/directory/plugin_directory.json
Better to download from nexus and get the meta from there though, if you're doing WJ lists, makes it less likely for updates to break the list.
Hi @Kezyma MO2 does not respond when I click on pluginfinder. I've been waiting for a long time but nothing is opening. The mod organizer just freezes. I have to terminate it and start over.
hi Kezy just wondering why doesn't your plugin finder detect plugins installed through mo2 folder? for example I downloaded your root builder here in nexus and not through this mod so it doesn't detect that I installed it already.
While technically possible, it's tricky to do as I'd need a way to determine the exact files that are meant to be in each plugin before they're installed, and on top of that, I'd have to write a horrible regex of some kind to try and work out what version is installed, which is no easy feat.
Maybe one day I'll do something like that (and anyone's welcome to do those things and add them to the repo), but it's mostly just because it'd take me a lot of time that I don't really have.

It has not helped. Does this indicated a problem?

Bethesda Plugin Manager for Mod Organizer is one. It is working pretty well.

I have MO2 2.5.0 and Skyrim AE 1.6.640.

Endorsed! And Kudo-ed!

Thanks man.
Btw, I still had to edit it manually after installing latest upload of v2.0.0 of this plugin to Nexus at 02 Dec 2023, 7.24PM.
Maybe the fixed version hasn't been posted to Nexus yet?

With MO 2.5.0 I get following error message if I want to start 'Plugin Finder' (version 1.2.6)
Had to delete everything and reinstall it, it's working again.MO2 does not respond when I click on pluginfinder. I've been waiting for a long time but nothing is opening. The mod organizer just freezes. I have to terminate it and start over.
