Firstly, thank you for creating this guide and apologies since I'm not massively experienced at this.

As seen above, I'm attempting to install the Audiobook Metadata Agent using WebTools.

I've gotton this error message, I've restarted Plex and Webtools but I still get it.

Since no one answered I am going to just say WebTools has not been my favorite experience and I did not like/feared the CLI (Command Line Interface) lol

Just copy/paste the corresponding OS "path" below into your filebrowser (look below for paths). Then copy into the plugins folder the uncompressed PROPERLY NAMED folder with .bundle at the end

Evidence: in another repo seanap said to:

  1. Download the plug-in by clicking Here. https://github.com/djdembeck/Audnexus.bundle/archive/refs/heads/main.zip The plug-in bundle will be located within a zip archive. Unzip the archive. Edit the bundle’s folder name and remove "-main" so you are left with the foldername “Audnexus.bundle” Bundles downloaded from GitHub will usually have extra identifiers appended to the bundle’s filename, such as “-master”, it is importaint that the folder name ends in .bundle
  2. Copy or move the plug-in bundle into the Plug-Ins folder on the computer running Plex Media Server

MySummary: Just copy/paste the corresponding OS "path" below into your filebrowser. Then copy the uncompressed PROPERLY NAMED folder with .bundle at the end

Windows:

%LOCALAPPDATA%\Plex Media Server\Plug-ins

macOS:

  ~/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-ins

Linux:

 $PLEX_HOME/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-ins

For me the Linux path was:

/var/snap/plexmediaserver/common/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-in

Go you your Audiobook Library > Edit > Advanced - This will load the plug in, return to guide for initial config settings.

@ForDefault I downloaded the agent into the Plug-ins folder at the path similar to yours, and it shows up under Settings > Agents > Albums and is first, but it does not show up under > Artists. Also, when I edit the Audiobooks library I created, it does not show up as an option in the Agents dropdown. Any ideas?
