I tried adding a new plugin onto my Joomla but couldn't. I went to the Extension Manager tab, then install/uninstall, then tried to upload the file from my computer, which is named auto_purge_cache.php, but it said "unknown archive type". Do you have to convert this file into another extension? If so, this thing came with no installation instructions, so I am really lost here about how to install it. Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks.

Install files will be a .zip with many files inside, not a single file.

Hope this helps!
