new to ionic I'm using windows 7 with ionic I tried ..ionic add plugin ... to add new plugins when I check my directory structure the plugins are not installed how do I add new plugins and how do I check if the install worked
I think you want to add a cordova plugin, not an ionic plugin? If so you have to do it like this:
cordova plugin add [plugin]
for e.g. the network plugin:
cordova plugin add org.apache.cordova.network-information
The plugin now should show up in the app/plugins folder
Hope this helps!
