Could someone please help with the location and operation of plugins on LR5.
The story so far is:
Followed the help from smugmug, to load their latest plugin. So after finding library on finder, placed 'SmugMug.lrplugin' in users/username/library/application support/adobe/lightroom/modules/
Opened up Lightroom and it updated the two smugmug services which I have and had before the latest LR5 update.
Went into File/plugin manager, to confirm that SmugMug is installed and running. The version it sees is 2.0.5, about 10 versions behind the one I have just loaded. If I choose show in finder it points to where I put it but that is/should be the new version. If I press update it identifies a 433KB file of version 2.1.5.0, which has taken so long to load I cancelled it after half an hour and 10KB in!!!
If I go to another plugin I have found that many more plugins are in Applications/Adobe Photoshop Lightroom/contents/plugins/... various plugins (I believe that this is where Lightroom 5 is looking for its plugins and why it cannot see v2.1.5.0 of SmugMug). On the Mac I cannot get to contents/plugins on finder except through the show in finder button in the lr5 plugin manager.
Can someone explain what I am doing wrong. Where plugins should be placed and how, (if they are in library or contents) with perhaps an explanation of what is happening?
