Currently it is not possible to install QAPlug and its submodules using IntelliJ IDEA Plugin Manager – still waiting for JetBrains to activate our plugin. That is why we decided to prepare short description how to install QAPlug manually.

Let say that you want to install QAPlug – FindBugs plugin. This plugin depends from QAPlug plugin, so you will have to download both of them.

First go the JetBrains website and download QAPlug (http://plugins.intellij.net/plugin/?idea&id=4594 ). Please use Download url (http://plugins.intellij.net/plugin/?action=download&id=7740) which you will find there.

Next you have to do the same for QAPlug – FindBugs. You will find QAPlug – FindBugs plugin at: http://plugins.intellij.net/plugin/?idea&id=4597 with Download url: http://plugins.intellij.net/plugin/?action=download&id=7743 

Now you should have two files: QAPlug_7740.jar and QAPlug_-_FindBugs_7743.zip which must be placed in plugins directory in your IntelliJ IDEA installation folder.
Destination path should be similar to: \Users\\.IntelliJIdea90\config\plugins\

You can copy first file (QAPlug_7740.jar) as it is, but the second one (QAPlug_-_FindBugs_7743.zip) please unpack and copy its content (qaplug-findbugs) folder.

After that steps installation process is finished and you are able to start your IDEA.
We will be thankful for your comments, bug reports and suggestions.
