Re: [Gimp-user] Where to put python file 2016

[scott092707 aol com]

 Suggestion:

Try starting GIMP from the terminal.  If there is a problem with a plugin and it cannot be loaded,
there will be an error message.

I recently tried to install Resynthesizer, and it did not appear in the menu.
I tried both places that Preferences-->Folders said to put the files, and ... nothing.
I started GIMP from the terminal, and found that there was some sort of problem
that caused Resynthesizer not to be loaded.  If it is not loaded, it does not appear
in the menu.  
It may be that you're putting your plugin in the right place, but there is a problem with it,
and GIMP cannot use it.
