Can you show your Plugin? Maybe upload it to Github or something like this. In gerneral you have to place your plugin to **engine/Shopware/Plugins/Local/Frontend** (or Backend/Core it depends on your Plugin ). You can also download the Sample Plugin [here](https://developers.shopware.com/exampleplugins/SwagSloganOfTheDay.zip) Then unzip the Folder and place the folder  **SwagSloganOfTheDay** within  **engine/Shopware/Plugins/Local/Frontend** ---

so are you saying that I don’t need to install the plugin in plugin manager? just need to parse the folder **SwagSloganOfTheDay**  within  **engine/Shopware/Plugins/Local/Frontend** and they will work, is that what you mean? ---

the reason why I ask this question because in the tutorial this is how they install the plugin [http://community.shopware.com/images/articles/48d81e617a090f2882069d3b7d2689d4.jpg](http://community.shopware.com/images/articles/48d81e617a090f2882069d3b7d2689d4.jpg) but I can’t find local extension in shopware 5 plugin manager ---

Click the Button “Add plugin manually” then of course upload the [Sample Plugin](https://developers.shopware.com/exampleplugins/SwagSloganOfTheDay.zip) ---

You can either place your plugin manually in the correct folder like @kayyy‍ wrote or you can zip it an upload it via pluginmanager. Both should show your plugin in the plugin manager. If not something is wrong. If you upload it via Pluginmanager it should show up in „Community Extensions“ I think, not „Local extensions“. Did you check „All extensions“? After you found your plugin you have to install it (click the green + on the right) to get it running. If it still does not show up please post your Bootstrap.php and your file-structure and we can check if there’s something wrong. ---

Make sure that the uploaded zip file has the right folder structure: Plugin.zip \> Frontend \> SwagExample \> Bootstrap.php (and other files) (Frontend is of course depending on your plugin name  ![Wink](http://forum.shopware.com/plugins/CKEditor/plugins/smiley/images/wink.png "Wink")  could also be Backend or Core) Best regards from Schöppingen ![cool](http://forum.shopware.com/plugins/CKEditor/plugins/smiley/images/shopware.png "cool") Michael Telgmann ---

Click on “Installed” on the left side. There should be a list with all Plugins. Seperated in up to 3 lists: Installed, Inactive, Uninstalled If you have just uploaded your plugin it should be under Uninstalled ---

I have shopware 5.5.2
