Comments.Text: Yes I've cleared the cache from settings (that's what I was referring to in the OP) and I don't think it is a duplicate because the plugins are all lowercase and I'm not on production.

Comments.Text: Hi Shane, would you mind posting a screenshot of your directory structure? At least for `/craft/plugins` ... it would help for us to peek at what's in there.

Title: Why are my plugins not showing?
ThreadText: # Why are my plugins not showing?
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2014-08-14)
  
  I am trying to import from Wordpress, so originally installed the Import plugin which worked but I needed xml not csv. So I uninstalled that and installed another, but now no matter what plugin I try to install, nothing shows up!
  
  Any ideas? I tried resetting cache etc.
  
  Update: Adding more details.
  
  I've tried to install multiple plugins since the original one, the current plugin that I have in the plugins folder is 'craftimport-master' with all the correct files inside it.
  
  The plugins page just says "There are no available plugins." with no errors.
  I've tried running Clear Caches and Rebuild Search Indexes, just in case it worked.
  
  I also tried updating to Pro (using craft.dev) but that didn't change it either.
  
  Here is the current file structure:

  It looks like the **folder name** of your plugin is wrong. Change it to just say `craftimport`.
  
  The folder name should be the same as the "Whatever" part of the `WhateverPlugin.php` file sitting in the plugin's root folder. Except that the folder name should always be **all lowercase**. That's important, because some systems are case-sensitive while others are not... The only way to be certain your plugins will be detected is to use a lowercase folder name. (see [this thread...](https://craftcms.stackexchange.com/a/1537/45))
