XF 2.1 Add-on Problem

[Taz362]

I am trying to install an add on, notepad.
I can upload the files to the server, including the xml file.

Then I go into my Xenforo AP, Add-ons and try to upload the xml file, I get this message:
"Could not process addon-xfc_notepad.xml: The uploaded file does not have an allowed extension."

I'm new to this and could use any help.
Thanks.

It's not clear what you are doing but in XF2.1 you don't upload the xml file to the ACP/front end.

Instructions are here: https://xenforo.com/xf2-docs/manual/add-ons/

I'm following this:

That is an add-on that is only compatible with XenForo 1.5 and below. If you are using XenForo 2.1 as the thread prefix implies, you need to find a compatible add-on.

Told ya I was new to this....probably a little ignorant too.

I appreciate all the help from both of you and I'll pay a little more attention to compatibility from here on in.
Thanks again.
