installation

To install the plugin in Lightroom download the zip file.

manual installation

Within the package is a single folder with a suffix of .lrplugin Lightroom will only recognize a plugin if it is in a single folder with this suffix.
NOTE: In Mac OS, the suffix .lrplugin creates a package, which looks like a single file.

A plug-in folder can reside in any location on your hard drive. You can load the plug-in using the Add button in the Plug-in Manager (CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+,). Once it is added, you can enable or disable it through the dialog, or unload it using the Remove button.

Automatic plug-in loading

Lightroom automatically checks for plug-ins in the standard Modules folder where other Lightroom settings are stored:

Plug-ins that are installed in this location are automatically listed in the Plug-in Manager dialog. You can use the dialog to enable or disable such a plug-in, but not to remove it. The Remove button is dimmed when such a plug-in is selected.


In Mac OS (current user) ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom/Modules
In Mac OS (all users) /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom/Modules

In Windows XP C:\Documents and Users\username\Application Data\Adobe\Lightroom\Modules
In Windows 7/Vista C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Lightroom\Modules

 

  1. Use these buttons to add and remove plugins. If you didn't store the plugin in an automatic loaded folder, you need to use the Add button to install the plugin
