After all, the software works. File transfers were timing out but also I had to been taking the whole file folder; exactly as it unzipped after downloading. It was the second (nested folder) that did the trick, and the plugins began to ’show’ in the admin manager here. Which? I’m not sure. A big help was using a different file transfer system called ‘Leech’- form Germany apparently. I’ve no idea when or where I got it. It has a big advantage of showing all the ‘failed ‘files in a transfer and a gadget to load those again, without having to send the whole thing up the pipe.

Maybe. It does give a better control of what’s going on - and it sticks to the host throughout the whole operation - like a leech.
