Hi,

I have the following plugin:

```auto
Kirby::plugin('mymy/methods', [
  'pageMethods' => [
    'mediaFiles' => function () {
      $media = site()->files();
      return $media->add($this->files());
    }
  ]
]);

```

Is it possible to add pageMethods directly to config.php instead of using a plugin? When I do it it no longer works 🤔

No, that’s not possible. You can define hooks and routes in config and config settings, but not plugins.
