.py script not showing under Python-Fu

[david1005]

I must be missing some obvious but can't see it.

I download the py script from viewtopic.php?f=9&t=14607 and added it to the GIMP script folder (C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\share\gimp\2.0\scripts), restarted GIMP but its not showing under Python-Fu as described in the post, so I:

- updated GIMP to the latest version (2.10.24 - revision3)
- restart the pc (win 10)
- tried adding the script to the other folder in GIMP scripts (C:\Users\David\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\scripts)
- added the scripts folder to the PATH
- tried another script but can't see that either
- checked the contents pygimp.interp, pygimp.env and location of python.exe, pythonw.exe (process described in another post)

The Python-Fu menu is under Filters and it just has the Console in it. Everything else is working. Not sure what to try apart from a reinstall. Thanks

.py filters go under plug-ins, not scripts

Many thanks for your help.

Thought it could be something obvious but missed it.

It is recommended to use the path: (C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10) instead of (C:\Program Files\GIMP 2) for all your 3rd party addons. This way, if you upgrade to a new version won't lose the any 3rd party scripts or plugins. Welcome to GC!
