My installer did not create a folder "Documents/LiveCode/Plugins", if that matters. I can certain navigate, via that preferences dialog, to the folder

I know, they'd avoid some confusion if they created those folders for
you. Anyway, the enclosing folder can be named anything and placed
anywhere (but best to avoid the app folder, make it a user location.)
But inside that you must have a folder named exactly "Plugins". And your
plugins go there.

If you still have a My Studio (or My Enterprise) folder inside
Documents, put your plugin inside the Plugins folder in there and point
to My Studio (or whatever.)

I'm pretty sure this is a no-no, but it has worked well for me.

I right-click on the Live Code application in the Application folder and open the Package Contents/Tools/Plugins.

I do this for 4.5.1 and 4.5.2 and then just Option-Drag the plugin of interest from Plugin folder to the other. Works like a charm.

Don't tell anybody I'm doing this. I'm sure it's naughty.
