You have to go through the process of installing them through the dashboard or restore via a backup, but I'd imagine that this wouldn't work unless you were also restoring the db... And.. I just confirmed that restores from pre 4.6 - plugins restored will still not register as being installed Deleting _transient_timeout_plugin_slugs and _transient_plugin_slugs wp_options records seems to force the installed plugins to update, but unless I'm just being impatient, it doesn't look like the plugins will show up otherwise." defect (bug) closed normal API invalid
