Error with Plugin Parameters not Showing (Solved)

[Kinni]

This is an issue I had with three different plugins, so I expect that there should be a common cause on my end. Those three plugins are Mr Trivel's Scene Backgrounds and Frogboy's Frog Core and Frog Magic. When selecting any of those while trying to add a new plugin, nothing appears on either the parameters or the help sections, as if the manager can't read the plugin correctly.

If you guys need any extra information, just ask.

that is usually the case if the plugin files have been renamed.
Plugins need exactly the name that the original author set - how did you download the plugin files?

There are a few other possibilities, but to check them we would have to see the plugins, can you give links to their websites (do NOT post them here, we need the links to the original)

 

[Kinni]

I did not rename the plugins, just using them exactly as I downloaded them, which was from the original sources. Maybe something about the download messed them up, so that's a possibility still.

Here's the link for Mr Trivel: Link.

And here's the link for Frogboy: Link.

@Kinni it might be that windows has automatically renamed them when downloading twice - I know that happened to someone else, breaking his project.
can you give us a screenshot of your plugin manager so that we can see which plugins you have in which order and with what names?
additionally, can you give us the full filepath to your project? from drive letter to index.html?
(it has to be something like c:\folder1\folder2\project\index.html)
There are a few things that can be detected from the path, like wrong letters or special folders that should not be used for projects.

Here's a link to the image: Link. (Embed wasn't working for me.)

F:\Kinni\RPG Maker\Projetos\Spiritual Live a Live\index.html
That's the file path.

two problems, both need to be corrected:
1) your filepath does not follow networking rules, which means that any browser will have problems loading your project files - and RMMV creates HTML5-games.
Please remove the spaces from the folder name

2) your yanfly plugins are partially in the wrong order - and order is important for most plugins.
please check yanfly's website, the plugin list is in exactly the correct order.
at minimum you need to move the item core, but there might be others in the wrong order.

EDIT
3) the plugins you mentioned as having problems with are not in that list - please give the correct list with the problem plugins again after solving the two problems above.

Here's the link with the image of the plugin manager, with Yanfly plugins reordered and the non-working plugins at the bottom (note the lack of description).

Here's my updated File Path:
F:\Kinni\RPGMaker\Projetos\Live\index.html

The issue persists.
Edit: Also, I've checked the filenames for the JS files, and they all seem to be correct. (MrTS_SceneBackgrounds, FROG_Core, FROG_Magic)

When downloading the plugins from Github, did you press the "Raw" button before right-click > Save As? E.g. here's the raw link for Frog Core: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FrogboyMV/FROG_Core/master/FROG_Core.js

If you try to save the non-raw page, the result will be in HTML format (and include a bunch of irrelevant information), which means the Plugin Manager will fail to read it correctly regardless of whether you replace the file extension.

 

[Kinni]

I didn't think I had saved anything in HTML format, but I went and redownloaded everything specifically from the raws and what do you know? It finally worked! Thank you for the help.

Great, happy to help! ^_^
