Hi Blender team,

The Pose Library Thumbnails addon not installing in Blender official 2.83, tried a few times, with 2.82, 2.83, 2.90
and some of my friends cannot install it. Do not appear on the addon list.

addon by Sybren A. Stüvel : https://gitlab.com/blender-institute/pose-thumbnails
*I contacted him already and he suggested to do this bug report :)

@Hjalti Hjálmarsson (hjalti) used it for spring!!, I think this addon MUST be integrated in Blender official addons, is necessary for //character animation,//
(until you work on a new pose library in the future)

with a fix suggested by @umkastudio22
I `can install it, select the poses but is not showing the thumbnails (attached is a screen capture)
`
The fix:
Python API changed a lot in 2.80. You can fix addon by hand. Find http://prefs.py and change line 17 from

return context.user_preferences.addons[package].preferences

to

return context.preferences.addons[package].preferences"

must work"

Best Regards,
Leo

@Sybren A. Stüvel (sybren): not sure if we handle non-official Addons in the tracker here? ^^

Sybren A. Stüvel (sybren) claimed this task.

@Philipp Oeser (lichtwerk) we don't, the add-on's repository is on Gitlab, so the issue should have been filed there. And apparently it already has been, at https://gitlab.com/blender-institute/pose-thumbnails/-/issues/6.
