 * Hello everyone!
   I have a problem on one of my sites. The mu-plugins folder seems
   not to “work”. When I put my plugin there, I don’t see it anywhere in the backoffice
   and the plugin doesn’t work.I tested on another of my site and it works very 
   well. It’s actually a php page to customize the cookie banner.If someone sees
   where the problem can come from… I take!Thank you !

 * Hello [@kwent](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kwent/)
 * Can you double check if you’re copying the correct plugin file to the `mu-plugins`
   directory?
 * Can you copy a different mu-plugins to the directory to see if it works?
 * Another place to check is your `php-error `logs to see if the plugin you added
   might be throwing any errors.

 * Hi Tarhe,
 * Thank you for the aswer.
   I tried to create a simple hello world plugin and it
   doesn’t work when I put it in mu-plugins folder. I check the php-error logs to
   and there is no trace of the plugin, or even of the mu-plugins folder.
 * I’m stuck. is there a file in which to configure the reading of mu-plugins folder?
 * Thanks for your help.
 * Kwent
