Hi!

I am not able to see the Episerver add-ons next to cms in the episerver header. Is there something i need to do or install to be able to do that? OR can i add my add on in some other way?

Hello Catrin

You can install add-ons directly from Visual Studio: http://world.episerver.com/documentation/Items/Developers-Guide/EPiServer-CMS/8/add-ons/Installing-add-ons/
