Dear Junior,
in the zip file you have to use the same directory structure as in the
.qgis2/python/plugins directory. If the name of your plugin is "xxx" then
in the zip there sould be a xxx directory which contains the __init__.py
and metadata.txt and the main python file xxx.py, you can use other
subdirectories too.
xxx.zip:
xxx - __init__.py
metadata.txt
xxx.py
...
help
...
Try to download a plugin from plugins.qgis.org and check the structure of
the zip file.
I hope this helps you.
Regards,
Zoltan

Hi all
I'm tring to upload and share my first plugin at [1] but encountered an
error I don't really understand. It says:
*There were errors reading plugin package (please check also your plugin's
metadata). Cannot find __init__.py or metadata.txt in the compressed
package: this does not seems a valid plugin (I searched for
help/__init__.py and help/metadata.txt)*
I have __init__.py and metadata.txt files but they are in the main folder
(I use Plugin Builder plugin) and none of the plugin folders I looked at
has such files in help folder.
So, why is it looking for these files in the help folder?
What did I make wrong? Is it a bug? and if not, what should contain these
files?
Some help? Thanks a lot.
