oh-my-zsh plugins not working
Solution 1
I got bitten by this.
What happened is you did a manual install and the instructions for the manual install don't mention that you need to set the PATH
yourself.
So you end up with the default PATH. The source for the automatic setup code copies your current path and appends it to the .zshrc
, which isn't enough if you depend on non-standard PATH
entries (e.g. you run Homebrew on a Mac).
So the fix is simple:
Fire up your old shell and its configuration file and then copy and paste the value of $PATH
into the top of your ~/.zshrc
file.
Ciao!
Solution 2
Make sure that you define your plugins variable before you initialize zsh:
plugins=(git wd)
export ZSH=/home/<user>/.oh-my-zsh
source $ZSH/oh-my-zsh.sh
Solution 3
I had the same problem just now! There was a package called grml-zsh-config
installed in my Archlinux. I removed this package and oh-my-zsh
themes started to work.
Solution 4
In my case, in ~/.zshrc I had repeated plugins variable
plugins=(git)
.
.
.
plugins=(git autojump zsh-syntax-highlighting zsh-autosuggestions)
Check to see if this is the case with you because with this only your git plugin will be used.
Remove the first plugins variable and it should work.

I've just discovered oh-my-zsh, but I can't get it to work. While themes work just perfectly, plugins do not. I have some plugins selected, eg. macports, but neither I get port command completion nor do appropriate aliases work. Here's my .zshrc:
# Path to your oh-my-zsh configuration. export ZSH=$HOME/.oh-my-zsh # Set name of the theme to load. # Look in ~/.oh-my-zsh/themes/ # Optionally, if you set this to "random", it'll load a random theme each # time that oh-my-zsh is loaded. export ZSH_THEME="steeef" # Set to this to use case-sensitive completion # export CASE_SENSITIVE="true" # Comment this out to disable weekly auto-update checks # export DISABLE_AUTO_UPDATE="true" # Uncomment following line if you want to disable colors in ls # export DISABLE_LS_COLORS="true" # Uncomment following line if you want to disable autosetting terminal title. # export DISABLE_AUTO_TITLE="true" # Which plugins would you like to load? (plugins can be found in ~/.oh-my-zsh/plugins/*) # Example format: plugins=(rails git textmate ruby lighthouse) plugins=(git osx github macports textmate svn) source $ZSH/oh-my-zsh.sh # Customize to your needs... export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin/:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin/:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/local/cuda/bin:/usr/local/cuda/bin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin
textmate and osx plugins also do not seem to work - zsh just complains about unknown command and stops. git and svn have some basic completion but I'm not sure whether it's done by plugin or just a normal zsh completion. Do I have to export something to use those plugins? Or if not, what to do to have that fixed?

Mike McFarland almost 9 yearsDo you know why this would cause your plugins not to work (what does zsh need on the path?) I cannot seem to get mine to work (on arch linux).

Jesus CMD over 6 yearsWith me the problem was that: I had plugins bar after ZSH lin:
-
Wis about 5 yearsfor me the solution was to move
source $ZSH/oh-my-zsh.sh
to the end of .zshrc, after all of my user configs. -
Wis about 5 yearson further investigation the issue looks to be having
source $ZSH/oh-my-zsh.sh
before setting vi mode on withbindkey -v
and remapping some zsh shortcuts and some keys in vi mode, otherwise plugins work as normal. the issue is that if you source after, vi mode stops working. the OMZ plugin in question is fzf. -

lacostenycoder over 2 yearsIn my case it was
export ZSH=$HOME/.oh-my-zsh
which solved the problem thanks!
