    Open the .zip file and look if you have a file in there called default.php

    It should have to start with an array:


    $PluginInfo['PluginName'] = array(
    'Name' => 'PluginName',
    'Description' => 'Description',
    'Version' => '0.1.1',
    'Author' => "",
    'AuthorEmail' => 'email@author.com',
    'AuthorUrl' => 'Author Url'
    );

    Thanks

    analyzer seemed to fail because of this....
    
    original
         'Description' => 'my formatter made one very long line description
                into two lines, and added a return.'
    
    fixed:  
          'Description' => 'my formatter made one very long line description into two lines, and added a return.'
