Title: Plugins don’t register Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # Plugins don’t register * [kbc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kbc/) * (@kbc) * [20 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugins-dont-register/) * I’m using WP 2.0 RC3 but I’m not sure if it goes in that category since it’s mostly a plugin problem. I went and installed Ryan Duff’s wp-contactform plugina dn it worked for a while. * Then I went to edit the CSS and all of a sudden, WordPress stopped noticing the plugins that were inside a subfolder in my plugins category. * Like the akismet plugin is under `wp-content/plugins/akismet/` but it doesn’t work. Not only does it not work, it doesn’t show up in the plugin screen either. I can’t edit it using the WP plugin editor because it won’t show up there. * I don’t know if there is anything I can do, but there doesn’t seem to be any options for this and I don’t know why it suddenly happened when I’ve been using WP 2.0 RC3 for a while. During that time, I’ve installed other plugins that go under a subfolder, and they’ve worked fine. * Also, deleting the wp-contactform plugin doesn’t help things, so I don’t think it’s the plugin itself.

I just don’t know why it hiccuped like that in the first place.
