**Your software**  
My Mautic version is: docker compose latest  
My PHP version is:docker compose latest  
My Database type and version is:docker compose latest

**Your problem**  
My problem is:  
I tried create my own custom plugin following the offical docs. After 3 hours of trying, plugin was not appearing in mautic’s UI. (Other plugins like Outlook, Gmail, etc. are there). So I went to github and downloaded example plugin: [GitHub - franciscoplnv/fran-mautic-plugin: FranBundle example mautic plugin](https://github.com/franciscoplnv/fran-mautic-plugin/tree/main). Still, if I put the folder inside /var/www/html/docroot/plugins and hit php bin/console cache:clear - no plugin is apparing. What I do wrong?

These errors are showing in the log:  
No error logs actually

Steps I have tried to fix the problem:  
3 hours of trying guys… 3 hours 🙂

So I cloned Gmail plugin, renamed it everywhere based on docs and still the plugin is not appearing: [GitHub - jaroslavhuss/PocketMaticplugin](https://github.com/jaroslavhuss/PocketMaticplugin)

did you hit the “Install / Upgrade Plugins” button in the upper right corner? (Or run mautic:plugins:install).  
If yes, please verify that the access rights to the plugin directory and files are the same as for the other plugins

Wooow,

it was about access rights! Thank you so much! For the rest of the developers - go to docroot and hit

```auto
chmod -R g+w plugins

```
