    Installing plugins in NodeBB
    Hi everyone!
    (Request to administrators to move to the appropriate category)
    I installed the NodeBB forum and I use cloudron.
    I wrote a new plugin for NodeBB, and when I try to install it directly from the terminal I get an error that the files are read-only.
    Even when I opened a project on GitHub and uploaded the plugin files there, and tried typing the command:
    /usr/local/bin/gosu cloudron:cloudron yarn add nodebb-theme-XXXX
    I still got the same error.
    Can someone help me figure out where my mistake is?
    Thank you!

      You might have to take it up with cloudron, on a standard nodebb installation with a VPS, the user running nodebb will have write permission to the nodebb folder so they can run npm install not sure how it works on cloudron.

        You can check out this doc for Cloudron installs. https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/nodebb/

        I should add instead of using the yarn add command use the npm install instead

          After endless attempts, it turns out that the whole problem was in the plugin itself, and the plugin itself was written for me by ChatGPT, and I can now say with certainty after endless attempts - he can't write plugins at all!
