Why are add ons not installing? The add ons I’m using work fine in Blender 2.7 but if I try to install them in 2.8 or 2.82 nothing happens. It seems no add ons at all work for me.

If I install from file the Blender log says the modules have been installed but they don’t show up in Blender or in the add ons folder.

Also, the method of just putting them in the add ons folder itself doesn’t work either.

Any help would be much appreciated.
Due to API changes all Add-ons need to be updated for 2.8x:


  Blender 2.80 is an API breaking release. Addons and scripts will need to be updated to run on 2.80, both to handle the new features and adapt to changes to make the API more consistent and reliable
