    https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/contact-form-7/

    Getting follow error message:

    "https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/contact-form-7/" is not a valid plugin name format. This key has been deleted.

    Hi,
    As written on the description, you don’t have to use the plugin URL, but its slug (its machine name).

    slug: plugin slug name – Please refer to the plugin/theme URL on ww.wp.xz.cn to determine its slug: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/THE-SLUG/

    In your case, it is “contact-form-7”.

    Best,

    Thanks I understand now what is required.

    Current English translation shows as:

    Please refer to the plugin URL on ww.wp.xz.cn to determine its slug – https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/THE-SLUG/ –

    This lead me to conclude (incorrectly) that the full plugin URL was required.

    Following might be clearer:

    Add slug: plugin slug name – please refer to the plugin URL on ww.wp.xz.cn to determine its slug – https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/THE-SLUG/
