 * I upload plugins to wpcontent/plugins but they do not appear under inactive plugins
   in by blog. How do I sort this out? I have tried with different plugins but they
   are all the same.

 * Make sure they are not nested in folders. Sometimes when you extract the zip 
   on your computer, it will extract in a duplicate folder. For example, if you 
   are using a plugin called podpull, when extracted it may be like this: podpull/
   podpull/files where it should be: podpull/files
