Error "Method '<Clone>$' in type " on Start when loading some Plugins

Hi,

We used
Nop commerce 4.5 and plugin 4.5
Visual Studio 2019

Need visual studio 2022. Key part of what’s wrong

A clean and then build with VS 2022 seemed to solve it for me.

Yep. That’s the whole point of this thread. Everything must be vs2022

Hello guys,

The solution was mentioned in this thread https://www.nopcommerce.com/en/boards/topic/92720/plugin-development-4404-install-issue/page/2, for versions under 4.5 you need Visual Studio 2019 and you have to do a full Clean + Rebuild, which will work. If you are switching between 4.5 and lower ones you have to check if the rebuild was done successfully as I had some issues with some plugins and had to manually rebuild them.

For 4.5 and onwards you need Visual Studio 2022 and do the same steps as above.

Hope it helps someone

First of all you need to Clean your solution, then build the plugin folder. after all rebuild your solution and run that.
