Topic: Upload Plugins From Plugins List

I have seen a lot of people asking for a way to upload plugins from the plugin in tab, so I wrote a small little script that will allow the user to upload the plugin zip file

navigate to plugins -> box -> plugins -> views -> backend and copy and paste this code into the index.view.php file






    
    
    
    

        

            

                
                    

                        
                        
                        
                        
                        
                    

                
                
                    
                    

                        
                            
                        
                        
                           
                        
                        
                           
                        
                        
                            
                        
                        
                            

                             'btn btn-small', 'onclick' => "return confirmDelete('".__('Delete plugin :plugin', 'plugins', array(':plugin' => $plugin['title']))."')"));
                             ?>
                            

                        		
                    

                    
                
            

                    open($target_path);
        if ($x === true) {
            $zip->extractTo("../plugins/"); // change this to the correct site path
            $zip->close();
            unlink($target_path);
            header( 'refresh: 3; url=/admin/index.php?id=plugins' ); # redirects to our homepage
        }
        $message = "Your plugin was uploaded successfully, page will reload in 3 seconds.";
    } else {    
        $message = "There was a problem with the upload. Please try again.";
    }
}
?>
$message"; ?>








        

         

            

                
                    

                        
                        
                        
                        
                        
                    

                
                
                    
                    

                        
                            plugin_name; ?>
                        
                        
                           plugin_description; ?>
                        
                        
                           plugin_author; ?>
                        
                        
                            plugin_version; ?>
                        
                        
                            

                             'btn btn-small')); ?>
                             'btn btn-small', 'onclick' => "return confirmDelete('".__('Delete plugin :plugin', 'plugins', array(':plugin' => $plugin_xml->plugin_name))."')"));
                             ?>

Re: Upload Plugins From Plugins List

1) the plugin must be in folder
like this:
-contacts.zip
--contacts
---- all files here

cause when i try to upload Awilum plugin he pack it like this
-contacts.zip
-- all files here

2) it works only with .zip tryed .rar nothing smile

3) i repack the plugin contacts made it .zip upload, i can see it in folder with plugins but i dont see it in admin panel so i cant install it Q_Q in install new i have only sandbox
(about 3 i try another one it works, need to report to Awilum abt contacts plugin there are 2 files missing)
