I try to have a custom plugin for community builder
i have modiffied the sample and the plugin is installing in :
plugins\sh404sefextplugins\sh404sefextplugincom_comprofiler\comprofiler

but is not overriding the default plugin. even i delete cb standard plugin.
I have to install it in other folder to replace the standard one?

for the language file i have to install it in the admin folder of sh404ef over the standard cb language file ?
i know that support is not for this but if you have time... just a quick answer

Hi

When you say "the plugin is installing in ...plugins\sh404sefextplugins\sh404sefextplugincom_comprofiler\comprofiler"

1 - I assume you mean: "...sh404sefextplugin\com_comprofiler\comprofiler"
2 - In "plugins\sh404sefextplugins\sh404sefextplugin", you should have the main "com_profiler.php" file for the plugin
3 - After putting the files there, have you Joomla "Discover" to install it? or installed it another way? Can you see the plugin in Joomla Plugins manager?

in joomla directory :
plugins\sh404sefextplugins\sh404sefextplugincom_comprofiler\comprofiler
but i will change
to
plugins\sh404sefextplugins\com_comprofiler\comprofiler.

I used first option pecause i have some plugin there like:
plugins\sh404sefextplugins\sh404sefextplugincom_adsmanager\adsmanager\com_adsmanager.php
and is working

Joomla is installing the plugin i can see it. i can publish or unpublish it.
I will try in other folders.
My curiosity was if sh404ef wil pass the default cb plugin from :
components\com_sh404sef\sef_ext

yes, the plugins in /plugins/sh404sefextplugins have priority over those in /components/com_sh404SEF/sef_ext.
That's exactly what they are for: to allow user to override built in plugins.

ok. my plugin is installed with joomla but no overrides.
lets try in this way
i manually created the folders like this
plugins\sh404sefextplugins\com_comprofiler\comprofiler
here i put the com_comprofiler.php

should work ? should override the default com_comprofiler.php ? in my case doesnt work

i will wait until will be some documentation on the site. maybe i do something wrong

No, that way it should not work.

Have you looked at the default plugins that comes with sh404SEF?
In /plugins/sh404sefextplugins, you have the following structure by default: https://weeblr.com/images/screenshots/jchOGYyde8AuRbElbnJ4P8aE3c3u2j.png

If you start with the provided com_sample, and change all the names and path it should work.
Of course, you need to use Joomla! Discover function to let Joomla know about your plugin.

Does your plugin appear in the list of Joomla! plugins, in the backend?
Have you published the plugin?
Also, have you purged urls, so that new ones created?

i have this files:
sh404sefextplugincom_comprofiler.php

with the path :
$this->_sefPluginPath = JPATH_ROOT . '/plugins/sh404sefextplugins/sh404sefextplugincom_comprofiler/comprofiler/com_comprofiler.php';

sh404sefextplugincom_comprofiler.xml

<filename plugin="sh404sefextplugincom_comprofiler">sh404sefextplugincom_comprofiler.php</filename>
<folder plugin="sh404sefextplugincom_comprofiler">comprofiler</folder>

and the folder
comprofiler
here i have the file:
com_comprofiler.php
whick is the default with a a small modification.

With all of this the plugin is installed in joomla and is activated.
Cache clared, urls purged.

If you want i can send the plugin

Have you updated the name?

 protected $_extName = 'default';

If you want i can send the plugin

Nope, sorry, I won't have time to test a custom plugin, I'm already just keeping up with the flow of regular tickets!

I'd suggest you look inside /components/com_sh404sef/sef_ext.php. At lines 208, you'll see the following:

// use custom method to find about correct plugin to use
    // can be overwritten by a user plugin
    $extPlugin = & Sh404sefFactory::getExtensionPlugin( $option);

    // which plugin file are we supposed to use?
    $extPluginPath = $extPlugin->getSefPluginPath( $vars);
    $pluginType = $extPlugin->getPluginType();

If you debug here, you'll se whether the plugin path found is correct or not.

I'm pretty sure that mechanism works fine, I have 5 custom plugins running on this very site!
