After updating to version 3.6.0, I wanted to install a new extension, but I got this warning message:

No installation plugin has been enabled. At least one must be enabled to be able to use the installer. Go to the Plugin Manager to enable the plugins.

But there is no installer plugin in my plugin manager. How to solve the issue?

The steps are:

  1. Go to Extensions > Manage > Discover
  2. Click on Discover button. Now you can see 3 installer plugins:
    • Installer - Install from Folder
    • Installer - Install from URL
    • Installer - Install from Upload
  3. Check all the checkboxes or at least Installer - Install from Upload checkbox and then click on Install button.
  4. Go to Extensions > Plugins and enable the Installer plugins.
  5. Now you can install extensions by going to Extensions > Manage > Install

That's it.
