Can anyone confirm that https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Squidly271/user.scripts/master/plugins/

is offline?  I cannot access it at all which hinders my ability to install or update plugins.  Not sure what is the issue is but I wanted to shed light on it.  Thank you in advance.

This is the community applications plugin, why are you trying to access it directly?

 

Go to your plugins tab, click install plugin and paste the link

Well it's not the plugin, it's the repo that I linked.  But I am trying to access it because I tried to install the user scripts plugin normally and it received an error "plugin: file doesn't exist or xml parse error".  If you try to view the link, it shows a 400 invalid request.  I've been using unraid for about 7 years now and I've never seen this particular repo offline.

Update, I edited the plg file and fetched the tar link in there and it downloaded.  I will manually install it.

Of course.  That's not the URL for the plugin.

 

There is never any reason to ever access a repo for any plugin ever (and as you noticed, unRaid will not accept a repo url)  Everything you install should be done via CA, as I do not ever publish the URLs to the individual plugins, and I also highly encourage all authors of plugins / docker repositories to not bother publishing the URLs

Hey Squid, thanks.  I was just trying to see what the issue was but it got resolved.  I appreciate the insight, you've helped me on numerous occasions.
