I took a look at this page, it sounds like importing the downloaded zip file plugin without unzipping it might be the cause from the comments, but since I didn't directly download this from the calibre forums , I am not sure that applies

.
Sorry, I shouldn't have just pointed you to this page without explaining what it was.

The page is (I hope) instructions on how to fix your problem.

So downloading the zip and unzipping is not causing your problem but instead is (hopefully) the solution to your problem.

Basically what I think happened is this.

p1nkyy had a problem with an error message that sound very similar to yours and reported it at https://github.com/ping/libby-calibre-plugin/issues/20

spicefather fixed the issue and also sent the details of the fix to ping who wrote the plugin and maintains/publishes it.

Unfortunately ping is busy and does not have time to deal with this. So the official plugin still does not contain the fix.

p1nkyy then asked spicefather how he fixed the issue.

He/she was given instructions, but didn't follow them completely. He/she must have downloaded the zip from https://github.com/spicefather/libby...heads/main.zip , but missed the bit where he needed to extract the files and then re-zip just the files in the calibre-plugin folder.

This is when he/she got the InvalidPlugin error

spicefather then clarifies what needs to be done to fix the issue.

p1knkky then follows the instructions correctly and it sorted their problem.

So I was hoping if you followed the same instructions, then it might sort yours.

Does that make sense now?
