Link List Plugin

[piscitella]

I twice downloaded at tried to install the sidebar plugin Link List, Install
Links manager - Shows your favorite links in the sidebar.
Author: Matthew Groeninger, Omid Mottaghi Rad; version: 1.9.

Both times that I attempted to install from the sidebar plugin screen I got the following errors

Error: serendipity_plugin_linklist:8c0dfa2443218640d701ae56e959480d ()
DEBUG: Plugin serendipity_plugin_linklist:8c0dfa2443218640d701ae56e959480d not an object: .

Please report this bug. This error can happen if a plugin was not properly downloaded (check your plugins directory if the requested plugin was downloaded) or the inclusion of a file failed (permissions?)

Hi!

Can you check if your plugins/ directory is writable? Does a folder "serendipity_plugin_linklist" exist and is writable?

Regards,

thanks for the reply. the problem was even though the download was from the sidebar section of the website and are labeled plugin_x when the download was unzipped it created the directory as an event and not as a plugin.

serendipity_event_guestbook
serendipity_event_linklist

I tar'd the contents into a _plugin_ dir and it installed fine.
