I've had to create a GIS for the company I work for, choosing QGIS over ArcGIS due to price (company doesn't want to buy another copy of ArcMap). In any case, it's not a HUGE GIS but it would be good to be able to search for features quickly and easily - just by typing in. It seems QGIS doesn't support this as easily as the users want to use it, so I've tried downloading the Quickfinder plugin.
In any case, after eventually finding out how to install it (as it will be offline when in use, so had to download the zip and extract to the correct place), QGIS has found it but can't install it, saying it's broken and can't call it's classFactory() method. The full code (with my project name removed due to confidentiality issues) is below:
Couldn't load plugin quickfinder due an error when calling its classFactory() method
Traceback (most recent call last):

Does anybody have any ideas?
