Hey @EricReiss,
Thanks for messaging! Happy to answer any questions.
Would you be able to clarify what you mean by the plugins are hanging and not installing?
What plugin are you trying to install? Is it a Disciple.Tools plugin or a WordPress plugin?
Are you installing it from the setup wizard, from the D.T extensions page, or from the WordPress plugins list?
Does it produce a white screen or a never ending spinner? Any error messages you can see?
Would you be able to post a screenshot of what happens when you try to install a plugin?
