in FC5 you put the plugins in <cfset THIS.plugins = "..."> in <project>/farcryConstructor.cfm and clearly updateapp. For the menus and the rest, those have to be defined under farcry/plugins/<plugin>/customadmin folder. There is an XML file that has to be defined (and webtop restarted). See http://docs.farcrycms.org/display/FCDEV40/The+webtop for a pdf. Although labeled for FC4 the syntax is the same for FC5.
So a couple things to make sure are that the file customadmin.xml is in the plugin folder customadmin, that there are the proper cfm files listed under <plugin>/customadmin/<name>/*.cfm which list how the type should be displayed such as: <cfimport taglib="/farcry/core/tags/admin" prefix="admin" /> <cfimport taglib="/farcry/core/tags/formtools" prefix="ft" /> <!--- set up page header ---> <admin:header title="Forms" /> <ft:objectadmin typename="idlForm" permissionset="news" title="Forms" columnList="title,receiver,datetimelastUpdated" sortableColumns="title,receiver,datetimelastUpdated" lFilterFields="title,receiver" plugin="idlform" module="/idlform.cfm" /> <!--- setup footer ---> <admin:footer /> I can't quite think of what else you might need for a plugin to work, but the farcryConstructor / updateapp step is key, and then the customadmin files.
