Plugin not found

[YahnisElsts]

Here are some ideas:

• Is there anything interesting/unusual going on with plugin slugs? Special characters in the slug? Using filters to change the slug?
• Does the correct plugin file name get passed to the update checker? Initialization code in the main plugin file or a different file? Maybe in a different plugin?
• Anything that would prevent the update checker from running in an AJAX request or an iframe?

I don't see any issues with the slugs or file path. I have tried a few different settings for those, but can't seem to get it to work.

As Example:
FILE PATH: {absolute-path} 'my-plugin-name/my-plugin-name.php'
SLUG my-plugin-name

I'll look into this further and see if it's an AJAX issue. It was working with version 4 but not 5.

Cheers

What exactly do you mean by: "{absolute-path} 'my-plugin-name/my-plugin-name.php'"? That looks like a relative path, not like a valid example of an absolute path. You don't need to post the actual code here, but are you sure that you're passing the correct, full path to the update checker?

[roguewdesign]

The directory path to the file. It is correct and verified. (/home/usr/public/website-folder.../etc...) as an example.

Some more ideas:

• Deactivate all other plugins to check for plugin conflicts.
• Does the "check for updates" link work, or does it also show an error of some kind?
• When you look at the URL of the "view details" link, does it show the correct plugin slug/directory? The URL usually looks something like this:
  .../wp-admin/plugin-install.php?tab=plugin-information&plugin=your-plugin-here&TB_iframe=true&...
• Install the Debug Bar plugin and look at the "PUC (your-plugin-slug)" panel. Does everything look correct there? Do the "Request Info" and "Check Now" buttons work without errors?
• Turn on WP_DEBUG and see if any errors/warnings/notices show up.
