Could not install plugin: No manifest for plugin ID ’undefined’

Joplin 1.7.5 (prod, win32)
Sync Version: 2
Profile Version: 34
Keychain Supported: Yes
Revision: 11b8821bf (master)

As the table escaping has been fixed I thought I would try this plugin again. However when trying to download within Joplin it I get the error, Could not install plugin: No manifest for plugin ID "Undefined". After clicking OK for the error the plugin system seems to freeze. Plugin hyperlinks cannot be followed and a new search cannot be undertaken as the cursor does not appear and cannot be placed in the search box. Functionality will return if other settings categories are clicked / moved to or Joplin is restarted.

The plugin works if manually dropped into the plugins directory.

Possibly two issues:

  1. Manifest file missing from GitHub
  2. Joplin handling of plugin system errors
