   It's possible that the plugin is inside too many folders. you might have:

   /wp-content/plugins/my-plugin/my-plugin/my-plugin.php

   instead of:

   /wp-content/plugins/my-plugin/my-plugin.php

   This is an annoying thing that happens sometimes depending on how the plugin file was zipped and then extracted.

   Like most things its easy when you know how. Thank you very much for your help. I did what you suggested and it seems to have solved the problem.
   Thank you once again.

   What else can be tried?

   I upload the plugins to the server and they seem to be in the one folder like the other plugins that show and are working in >>plugins>smart-youtube etc but they dont show in the dashboard. I've tried lots of plugins but no new ones i upload show up.

   But all the old ones i had, do... just new ones are not appearing.

   Why do i get this error when trying from in the Dashboard of WP to 'add new' plugin. I don't get this error when i add themes this way!? Even when 777 permissions are set for the blog and internal folders.

   You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.
