Trying to manually install a plugin to octoprint to get around crappy firmware
Post Body

So i have a TRONXY 2 pro and it has some issues communicating with Octoprint i get lots of this

Recv: //callback_pf error

Recv: ok N:705

Recv: ok duplicate line:705

Send: N706 G1 X138.304 Y130.620 E0.0270*93

one of the ways around this from users is installing a plugin that this person has created.

and

when i go into octoprint i try to put the ZIP files into the "browse" section of the plugin library and i get this output.

Installing plugin from uploaded archive...

Error!

im not really sure on my installation where the log is located so i can't really show it.

but i'm trying to figure out how to manually install both of those plugins so it will work and hopefully i can get this printer running on Octoprint.

if it's of any help i have this for my plugin locations but i'm not really seeing anything of use in there.

 Using pip of "/home/pi/OctoPrint/venv/bin/python2", Version 20.0.2
Installation directory: /home/pi/OctoPrint/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages ("--user" flag: no)
Virtual environment: yes

any help would be great. thankyou!

EDIT: SOLVED BY INSTALLING THIS PLUGIN. DISREGUARD ANYTHING ELSE. INSTALLED THIS.
