What plugins do I have installed?

Hi all.
I'm about to upgrade my Kobo eReader, but I want to reinstall all the plugins I have on my current one. Problem is, I can't remember what I have! I know NickelMenu is on there, as well as some other plugin that makes the Kobo process new books without having to unplug/replug the USB, but I can't remember what that one is called.
I've had a look through the file structure of my current device and can't see anything in there besides the config file for nm. Is there any way to work out what other plugins I installed?

I think you mean you don't need to replug for Series to be recognized? Because the normal import of new books doesn't need any replugging.
If that's the case, it's NickelSeries.

The most popular add-ons for Kobo are (based on my knowledge):
- NickelMenu
- NickelSeries
- NickelClock
- Patches (depending on availability for the given firmware)

Yeah it looks like NickelSeries is one I had installed - I was able to go back through all my posts on this forum (luckilly there aren't too many!) and find threads I'd commented in.
I did have some kobopatch custom patches, but I'll have to recreate those from scratch in any case.
Thanks for your post!
