Hello,
Apologies, I have spent time trying to search for an answer, but none of my queries return the solution.
I was trying to install os-smart plugin on 25.7. I went to System:Firmware:Plugins and there were many plugins listed. In the Name field I entered os- which restricted the list as expected.
Seeing that os-smart was not in the list, I did more searching in the forums trying to discover where it went (I think it is in sysutils/smart now). In the mean time my web session timed out.
When I log back in and go to System:Firmware:Plugins the only thing listed are the os- plugins. I am unable to clear that filter to get back to the entire list.
Am I missing something very obvious?
Check the address field in your browser. Maybe the search expression is part of a cached URL.
Did you checked the community section of the plugins? On the right TOP side is a button.

Yes, check "Show community plugins".
Cheers,

Thank you for your help. Checking the "show community plugins" reveals quite a few more plugins.
I am having a hard time remembering exactly what the original list looked like prior to me typing in os- in the Name field. Is it a correct statement that on a fresh install of 25.7 every plugin listed in the System:Firmware:Plugins area of the web console starts with os-? If so I feel like a fool typing os- in the Name field when they are all named os-
Yes, they are all named os-* for "OPNsense".
LOL. I spent so much time trying to "fix it" because I thought I originally saw a "different" list. I really appreciate your help. No wonder I couldnt figure out the correct search on the forum.
In FreeBSD ports packages dependent on a particular language or project have a prefix and we chose "os-" for all our plugins indeed.
That also makes them distinguishable from the upstream software, e.g. "squid" and "os-squid".
Cheers,
Franco
