I'm not acquainted with plugins, but for ados,...
1, does the ado file define the program (-program def...-)?
2, is the defined program the same name as the file (e.g., file 
myprogam.ado defines myprogram)?
3, is the ado file located in either the current directory or your 
ado directory (or appropriate subdirectory)?
