IATE plugin for Studio 2022?

Question

Oana Nagy 
 The changelog states that the plugin has been updated to be compatible with Studio 2022 and 2022 SR1. The terminology provider part of the plugin works well in both versions (SR1 and pre-SR1). 
 However, the search function in the context menu does not seem to work. It opens the "Search Results Viewer" window, but then loops forever without returning any result. Is this a known problem? or only on my PC? And a suggestion : The documentation in the WIKI needs an update: it still states that the plugin will only work with Studio 2019 and 2021 and also contains some other information that is not valid anymore. Thanks and best regards Walter

 This was only for our own. But as I mentioned above, with the changes we are implementing the wiki type info will be on the plugin in the appstore itself which means the same features will be available to every developer of an app on the store.

 Hmnnn - I think you'll have to live with this for now. We are most likely not going to go back and try to fix whatever causes this for earlier releases. Certainly it doesn't happen with the current release and I'm not going to even try and test in an older version. 
 Fixing for older builds means a lot of disruption to a developer and if it's not affecting actual work it's very hard to justify the time spent investigating and fixing when we could be doing something more important than resolving a signing message. 
 Don't mean to be obtuse here... but it's better you know the reality of the way we view this when we have to prioritise the fairly extensive workload we have to work on. So it's quite hard for me to see us doing anything on this one anytime soon. 
 I checked the dll naming as sometimes having spaces in there can cause this message. But we know this and don't make that mistake anyway... and it's not the case here. The only other thing I can think is to make sure that you have not inadvertently installed into another location... there are three possibilities although I expect you already checked that: 
 %APPDATA%\Trados\Trados Studio\17\Plugins 
 %LOCALAPPDATA%\Trados\Trados Studio\17\Plugins 
 c:\ProgramData\Trados\Trados Studio\17\Plugins 
 Just in case you are working in some way where you share these folders and possibly are using old data inadvertently?

 Indeed... and not just for this one. It seems we made a few mistakes when we were dealing with all the updates and tried to streamline the administrative work involved. Unfortunately it got out of synch with the changes really needed and added some changes where they were not needed. We will correct this. 
 The wikis in the community are really only a short term solution and we intend to move the help documentation, changelog and other useful things into the appstore itself. This way every developer for every app will be able to use these features and provide better support for their users. It will also avoid these sort of problems as the changelog will be more automated, prompting for the details whenever a new version is submitted and published. 
 Just part of a massive overhaul we have been working on with regard to the backend systems that I have o doubt everyone will appreciate once done. We're not that far off so I expect to start seeing some of these changes being rolled out in the coming months. 
 But thank you for your suggestion... we do listen.

 I don't believe it's loading... in that it won't get unpacked. It's spinning because SR2 had some substantial changes to the APIs around terminology and all terminology providers have been updated. They are still in QA but should be released soon.

 Normally due to not having cleaned out the unpacked before installing. Unlikely to be due to a plugin on the appstore being unsigned. I just downloaded and checked to be certain: 
 
 I suggest you clear out properly and reinstall.
