OK, with a TD instance 2 versions out-of-date already (0.0.13 vs 0.0.15), i 
decided to bite the bullet and upgrade it to most current version.

The Good News: it upgraded my out-of-date (v.5.1.16!) multi-files wiki to 
current 5.1.23.

The Bad News: you guys are right, Mark S. & Strikke : installation of 
plugins from within TD, via Control Panel : Plugins: "Get More Plugins" 
button, no longer works;  in fact one cannot even follow step 1 of the 
rather complicated instruction-set it throws up, i.e.
>  1. Identify the plugins you want to install using the *Plugins* tab of 
> control 
panel <https://tiddlywiki.com/#%24%3A%2FControlPanel> (*don't* install the 
plugins from here, though).
... Because that tab does not even give a browsable list of plugins 
anymore; click on tab just returns: "The official plugin library is 
disabled when using the client-server configuration. Instead, plugins 
should be installed via the tiddlywiki.info file, as described here 
<https://tiddlywiki.com/#Installing%20a%20plugin%20from%20the%20plugin%20library>"
 
(i.e. the step-by-step instructions that Mark references).  I'd have to 
call this a bug in the process.

Moreover: the upgrade to version 5.1.23 of the wiki didn't fix the tiddler 
Info tab problem; tho the view is updated, that tab i questioned above 
still says "References" instead of "Backlinks" (not that i care anymore 
about this, now that i know they are synonyms; am just sayin'....  :-)
