caelnameplates-need help installing

Today I've tried to install caelnameplates (http://www.wowinterface.com/download...ameplates.html). This is the first time I downloaded and installed an addon manually, I'm used to work with Curse client. But anyways ... I've followed this step by step guide on how to install addons: http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/f..._howto_install
My addon folder currently looks like this: *See attachments (caelnameplates is somewhere in the middle of the list)*

I've checked the FAQ, but it seems that I've done every step correct. But the addon just won't show up at my ingame addon list! Could anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

I reckon you'll need caelMedia and caelLib that's also bundled with the download.

Ok so I did what you said and it now looks like this: *see attachment*

Still, it doesn't work. What's wrong this time?

Check the cael folders, and make sure you don't have "folder-in-folder" syndrome. IE: Open the main folder(s) and make sure you don't have a folder exactly like the one you just opened in them, but nothing else (unless, of course, you open that folder). Open the "caelNameplates" folder and you should see two files: "caelNameplates.lua" and "caelNameplates.toc", but nothing else. The "caelMedia" folder should contain eight folders and four files (none of those folders will actually be titled "caelMedia", but two of the files will be). The "caelLib" folder should contain two files: "caelLib.lua" and "caelLib.toc".

You are aware, are you not, that WoWI has it's own installer? Check it out: MMOUI-Minion
