Answered Packman is missing plugins from transporter package

    I'm a beginner to using PackMan, so I'm hoping there's just something I'm missing here. All of the chunks, snippets and templates are transporting fine. But when the packaged data is finished installing, I'm missing half of the plugins I wanted it to install. The console doesn't give me any errors. All it says is "Console Running"....

    Also, when I try to add the plugins with Packman, the only ones listed are: CodeMirror, TinyMCE and VersionX
    In the subpackages, I've added: codemirror-2.2.0-pl, formit-2.2.0-pl, getfeed-1.0.0-pl, getresources-1.6.0-pl, googlesitemap-1.3.1-pl, importx-1.1.0-rc, tinymce-4.3.3-pl, versionx-2.0.0-dev11, wayfinder-2.3.3pl

    Plugins that install sucessfully: codemirror, formit, getfeed, getresources, tinymce
    Missing plugins include: googlesitemap, importx, versionx, wayfinder

      PackMan hasn't been updated for quite a while. It may not be fully compatible with 2.2.8.

      You might take a look at MyComponent.

      Once you get it working, it's a lot easier to make changes in the transport package than with PackMan and it will transport things that PackMan won't (e.g., Resources).
