External plugins are not loaded

[amsynist]

I attempted to integrate additional plugins, namely noice.nvim, barbecure.nvim, and mini.nvim. I included them at the end of the custom/plugins.lua file. Although the plugins were successfully downloaded after restarting Neovim, I encountered issues. The anticipated notifications from noice, breadcrumbs from barbecure, and various features from mini, expected to be available immediately post-installation, are conspicuously absent.

The screenshots illustrate the absence of notifications and features that should be visible right after installation.

The plugins were added in the manner depicted in the images, both in the custom/plugins.lua file and in the default plugins file.

However, despite successful installation of the plugins, the anticipated functionalities, such as the :Barbecue command from barbecure, remain unavailable. This is particularly perplexing as per the documentation, it should work seamlessly with the default nvChad configuration.

Vimacs loads your plugins lazily which is opted for performance.

What you're doing doesn't give any information about a "hook" that tells vimacs how to load your plugin.

You should refer to lazy.nvim docs or look at the prior code that I've written.
