Plugins

Post by Reindero »

Hi, I'm trying to install plugins for Mantis, but so far am not able to even download them.

For example this one: http://git.mantisforge.org/w/social.git

How the ** do I download this so I can use it in the plugin manager?

Regards,
Reinder

To download you have to click one of the links "snapshot" (the first one is the newest)
The plugins at this place are for version 1.2.x of MantisBT.
There is no need of any plugin manager.
Maybe you use a 3rd party development which is called "plugin manager"? This one is compatible with version 1.1.x of MantisBT but not 1.2.x
Please use Search before posting and read the Manual

A command if you are on a Linux host:

git clone http://git.mantisforge.org/w/social.git

This will download the latest version you can use. Just make sure it is copied in you plugin directory, then use Mantis " Manage Plugin" and click install.

There is so much help written on git already see e.g. http://nathanj.github.com/gitguide/tour.html that a smple Google search will for sure help you out more.
