I just upgraded to a new version of Inform 7 and one of the extensions I installed doesn't work any more. Where should I look to see if it has been updated?

Unfortunately the extension 'ecosystem' is rather fractured at the moment. You should look here for extensions:

  1. If you're using version 6L38, then check the Extensions tab, then select the Public Library sub-tab.
  2. Check the unofficial Github extensions repository
  3. Check the old Inform 7 website's extensions page. Most extensions on this page are for version 6G60, but a few are for newer versions.
If you can't find an update for the extension you're after, then you can ask in this forum thread if someone can update it for you.
