Sure, that topic was deleted. The topic gave a link to an old Discourse plugin that has an example of how to register public assets in a plugin: [GitHub - eviltrout/trout\_emoji: Adds an evil trout emoji to a discourse install · GitHub](https://github.com/eviltrout/trout_emoji).

The last time I tested this, adding images to a plugin in the `public/images` directory will make them available on the server in `/plugins/plugin_name/images/`

The plugin name that you use in the path is the plugin name that you give in the metadata at the top of the `plugin.rb` file, for example `/plugins/trout_emoji/images/trout-square.jpg`
