Hi @nhaagen,

thanks a lot for looking into this. I'm a little anxious that this damages other functionality, since we change that base path. Did you check:

• Where ilComponentRepository::PLUGIN_BASE_PATH is used overall?
• Where ilPluginSlotInfo::getPath is used?
• I any test plugin keeps working after this change?

If all "yes": Phew 😅 If not: Please check and report back. Thanks!

Kind regards!

I was reluctant, too, and then had to remove the "public/" part in ilPluginLanguage (see the first comimt of this PR)
In the according ticket, @christof756 pointed to some other misbehavior, and I changed the constant.

PLUGIN_BASE_PATH is really being used by ilPluginSlotInfo only, and ilPluginSlotInfo::getPath ist sort of hard to trace: It's used by ilPluginInfo, and that is involved every time the plugin is accessed.
However, TestSetupPlugin and EditorAsMode both work fine with the changes suggested here.
