FYI nothing is likely to happen on this until checks pass.

@mr-gigabytes have you seen the above comment?

I did but do not know what checks it was referring to.

The Validate / check_urls one.

Probably the easiest fix for this is creating a GitHub repository for the plugin.

@mr-gigabytes ping to check if you've got any updates on this.

@mr-gigabytes if you are not interested in making a GitHub plugin for this, I would recommend that you submit it to Hecter94's Plugin Archive instead. That repository does not require a GitHub URL, and can use a custom website if needed.
The "official" repository isn't quite as flexible; it could also be considered more "curated"; but it doesn't have as many plugins.

Thanks for your patience and persistence on this. I am barely a programmer and only part-time at that. After a swath of reading, I honestly still have zero idea on how to fix this or any idea of what the issue even is. I have only gotten this far by following the instructions on the Wiki. Github is a new thing for me and I am not entirely sure why someone can't just download the plugin, copy it to the plugins folder, and use it (because that is how I do it). I am out of my depth here. If we need to skip the add to the plugins DB, I understand. However, if you can explain it to me like I am 10, I may be able to fix it and get the appropriate prerequisites in place. Thank you again for your patience. Thanks, Josh Tordsen CEO, Gigabytes Technology LLC gigabytes-tech.com

In this endless-sky-plugins repository, a separate repository on your GitHub account is required to add the plugin to the official list.
The way the official list works, you can either download the plugin from the website's page or ESLauncher2. But it does not store copies of every file in the plugin.
However, there is a different, larger plugin repository. It does not show up on the website's page or ESLauncher2, but it has a compilation of every known plugin for Endless Sky. To submit plugins to that archive, all you have to do is open an issue an upload a zipped file of your plugin the way it is on the website.
The plugin will not automatically update still, but it doesn't require a GitHub repository.

If there's anything still unclear, feel free to say so. I'm happy to help.
