Following the “Plugin installation” steps at [cronfig.io](http://cronfig.io).
Steps 1-6 no problem.
Step 7 doesn’t happen. There is no “new menu item called Cronfig” in my Settings drop-down.
So what now?

OK, this is weird.
I deleted the plugin folder and THEN I got a new menu item called Config in my Settings drop-down. I clicked it and got the error “I think I broke it” – I assume because the folder was absent.
So I re-uploaded the folder, renamed it, cleared the cache, then clicked the Config menu item, and the login worked. I got my API key, and then got to the Cronfig setup screen.
Problem solved…?

Cronfig works on Mautic 2+. Please look for official documentation rather than old forum posts.
