No symbolic link on windows xp as far as I know. You can set QGIS_PLUGINPATH environment variable with a list of extra paths where to look for plugins. If specifying more one path then split them using semicolon on windows (colon on linux). Martin ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

Do we have to modify he registry key to add the new plugin? Yes it shall work for python plugins. No need to modify registry. You can check whether QGIS has picked up the extra paths: open the python console in QGIS and type: qgis.utils.plugin_paths It will print a list of paths used to search for python plugins. By default there is always the system plugin path and per user plugin path. Cheers, Régis PS: Good news that night, our sys admin did the qgis 1.7 install to our 70 GIS citrix potential users... Nice. It would interesting to hear how do you use QGIS in your organization. Martin ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

[Qgis-user] Move python plugin to a network directory
Hi list, I am looking after a simple method to deploy some custom python plugins on several servers inside our company network. As I understand it, today we have 3 solutions: 1- copy the plugins in C:\Program Files\Quantum GIS Wroclaw\apps\qgis\python\plugins of each server. We need to disturb our admin sys for this. 2- copy the plugins in each personnal user directory of these server: I prefer the first method... and my admin sys too 3- create a repository and let the users install and update plugins themselves.. They won't do the job I'm afraid. Ideally, we would like to put the plugins on a single shared network directory. Is there a way to have qgis look in it? No symbolic link on windows xp as far as I know. Can we use the searchPathsForPlugins registry key [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\QuantumGIS\QGIS\Plugins] for this ? We tried some unsuccessful tests with it. Régis___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
