Hi all,

The Photoshop plugin for Luminar is installed and works without problems. 
The
Lightroom plugin , however, can not be installed. Luminar shows 
that Lightroom has to be installed first. Is there a way to manually install 
this plugin? 
I use Windows 7 as operating system.
Thanks in advance

    Hi Hamouda,

    Yes, you can install the plugin manually. Here are instructions:

    The plug-in should be installed into the following folder:

    C: \ Users \ [your username] \ AppData \ Roaming \ Adobe \ Lightroom \ Modules

    Please download the plug-in file with this link:  https://www.dropbox.com/s/0vfwd8a57gluthi/Luminar2018Export.lrplugin.rar?dl=0

    Here's one way to install the plug-in into the correct folder:

    1. Download the compressed plug-in file using the link above.

    2. Right-click on the downloaded .zip file > Extract all.

    3. Next to extraction destination click "Browse".

    4. Paste the following string into the address bar and hit Enter: 

    %appdata%\Adobe\Lightroom\Modules 

    5. Click on Select Folder and then Extract to finish plug-in installation.

    6. Restart Lightroom and check if Luminar 2018 plug-in is installed.

     

    Access Luminar 2018 from Adobe Lightroom in the following way:

    When viewing an Image in either the Library or Develop modules: 

    Right-click on the image > Export > Export to Luminar 2018 > You have the option to Open Source Files or, if you've made any changes in Lightroom that you'd like Luminar 2018 to use, you can also choose Edit a Copy with Lightroom Adjustments

    After applying adjustments in Luminar 2018, your photo should appear in Lightroom's Catalog > All Photographs. 

    The edited image will be the last one in the list.

    Please let me know how it goes.

    Hi Angela,

    The link doesn't work. 

    I get the following error 404 message: This file is no longer in this location.
    Can you please check the link?
     
    I found another link here in the forum and downloaded the appropriate file and installed it exactly as your suggestion. If I want to export a file to Luminar in Lightroom, it shows me that Lightroom is uploading one photo to Luminar 2018. But Luminar is not started.

    You can also right-click in the Luminar shortcut (icon) and “run as administrator “, then install the plugin from Luminar.   That is how I had to install the plugin.

    it now works.
     
    I have uninstalled both plugins.
    Then installed Luminar and added it to the "external editor presets"
    Then I installed Aurora, which showed up in the EDIT list automatically.

    Angela,

    I just left a message that Luminiar is not working as a LR plug-in. You said in that thread, to follow the "export" path, which this thread addresses.

    I have tried to follow this path. Your download has 2018 in its title, but maybe it should work with my up-to-date Luminar V3.

    So, no way that I have found to use Luminiar with Lightroom.

    Please update this and/or send me an email at bill.bane@att.net so I can get over this hurdle.

    I got an email today saying a new version will come out next fri, so maybe all these problems are fixed there?
