Hello, I'm in the process of adapting this plugin to make it work better with latest October versions: https://github.com/pcvonz/oc-patreongoalstatus-plugin

I set it up in a local October instance (v1.1.0/build 469 running on PHP 7.4.11), but I get a blank page when navigating to the Patreon tab:

In development, this is all I get:

In contrast, this is how it looks like in production:

I'm not getting any errors in the browser's developer console or in PHP logs. I've followed the plugin documentation but I don't know if any breaking changes were made recently. I can't spot any, at least.

I also get this blank page with an unmodified version of the plugin I linked above. I made sure to run the plugin's database migrations as well.

PS: Are plugin.yaml files deprecated now? It seems most plugins don't use one anymore and define their properties directly in PHP files.

PS: What's the difference between build 469 and the 1.1.0 tag on GitHub?

If you're using symlinks in development you need to disable cms.restrictBaseDir.

1.1.0 is using Laravel 6 and if you're working on updating an existing site you should definitely switch to using 1.1.0 instead. v1.0.469 is the latest version available from the Marketplace, but work is underway to upgrade the Marketplace to support 1.1. 1.1.0 is available right now from composer though.

Thanks for answering! I can confirm disabling cms.restrictBaseDir does the trick :)
