The old gimp-plugin-registry site is gone. There were 3 versions of layerfx.
Assuming you are using Windows, the attached is a slightly tweaked version for
Gimp 2.10

Unzip it, and pop in your Gimp profile plug-ins folder
C:\Users\your-name\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\plug-ins

Find it bottom of the layers menu (also in right click in layers dialogue)

It is one of the plugins that are not very happy with Gimp 2.10 / 32bit python
2.7.15 Some filters do not work.

Work-arounds. The python color picker crashes. Set the FG color first, then
right-click in the dialogue, choose FG color.

As the name implies, it works on layers, depending on filter & settings remember
to size any text layers to suit.

If you want an earlier / Gimp 2.8 version just ask.
