Where are Add-on files stored?

Permalink
I am very belatedly upgrading some old C5 sites to the latest version and I am just getting familiar with the new file structure for installations. I have installed a couple of Add-ons and I would like to tweak the styling a bit, but for the life of me I can't find the add-on files. In the old C5 one started at "packages" but that seems to have only my added theme (Clonamental). Could someone point me toward them, please. Thanks.

Hello. I can confirm add-ons are still in the packages folder.

Now you might be dealing with blocks? In which case, if they don't belong to a package, you can find them in application\blocks

Sorry, total FALSE ALARM. Thanks for confirming my expectations. I am on a Mac and was tripped up by a program that I use to mount the remote filesystem as a device on my machine. It must be slow to sync or update the local display because I spent a long time looking everywhere for those packages--and when I went to bed last night the only thing in my "packages' folder was Clonamental. However when I re-connected this morning, there they were, right where they should be. Lesson learned about that mounting program.
