 * Hi,
 * I have tried to download and activate some of the free extensions.
 * FooGallery shows “The extension FooBox FREE was successfully downloaded and can
   now be activated. Activate immediately” and “The extension FooBox FREE was successfully
   activated”.
 * When I check the folder /wordpress/wp-content/plugins/foogallery/extensions there
   is no new extension only the existing ones.
 * Any ideas?

 * Found a solution 😉
    Used the WordPress plugin installer instead of the Foogallery
   plugin installer.

 * Thanks slabbi, I just spent a long time trying to get a boilerplate extension
   installed and recognised.
 * The documentation should be more explicit – a hand held walk through of where
   the code can be placed whould be great. To me, the current documentation implies
   it can be loaded into the active theme OR into the plug in area.
