Hi Everyone,

I have recently installed Discourse production through Docker and I’ve been trying to install a few plugins by following this guide: [Install plugins on a self-hosted site](https://meta.discourse.org/t/install-plugins-in-discourse/19157)

I added the plugins in my containers/app.yml

```plaintext
hooks:
 after_code:
  - exec:
    cd: $home/plugins
    cmd:
     - git clone https://github.com/discourse/docker_manager.git
     - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-brand-header.git
     - git clone https://github.com/pmusaraj/discourse-dark-mode.git

```

The docker\_manager plugin was loaded during initial installation. However, the other two plugins that I just added - discourse-brand-header and discourse-dark-mode are not showing after successive rebuilds. The build itself does not contain any errors. I do see the plugins in the “plugins” directory within my docker container, but it’s not showing within my Discourse admin, nor in the “Plugins” section of my settings. Am I missing something?
