Since the new version i get an error message when installing: Attempting to install package with signature: elementhelper23-1.3.3-pl Package found...now preparing to install. Could not find package manifest at /qualityrental.dev/public/core/packages/elementhelper23-1.3.3-pl/manifest.php Could not unpack package /qualityrental.dev/public/core/packages/elementhelper23-1.3.3-pl.transport.zip to /qualityrental.dev/public/core/packages/. SIG: elementhelper23-1.3.3-pl Could not install package with signature: elementhelper23-1.3.3-pl

Seems to be some naming issues.

Strange, it works when I manually place the transport package in the packages directory but not when downloading from the modx provider. As you say it seems to be a naming issue, it looks like the package manager is renaming the transport zip.

If you'd like to manually install it you can download it here - https://www.dropbox.com/s/acmj3v5rhohoksw/elementhelper-1.3.3.transport.zip

Just place the zip in /core/packages/ directory of your modx install and then click "Search locally for packages" in the package manager.

Thanks mate!

Had the same issue today.

My fix was to change the name of "elementhelper-1.3.3" folder in core/packages/ to "elementhelper-1.3.3-pl". After that modx installed the addon without complaining. Seems your directory name and signature name does not match.

I've just uploaded a fixed version to modx so downloading and installing through the package manager should work fine now.
