I have written a custom reader and writer in C++, and have copied the .dll, .fmf, and .db files to <fme-home-dir>/plugins (and also to <fme-home-dir> as a second try); but neither the reader nor the writer lists show it as an option. We are a member of the developer partner program, and would appreciate a nudge in the correct direction. Thank you!
Solved
How do I add custom reader and writer to the reader/writer list on FME Workbench?

Hi @mmahmud, if you mean Reader and Writer Plugins, those files have to be saved into different folders separately, like this.
- *.dll to <FME_HOME>/plugins
- *.fmf to <FME_HOME>/metafile
- *.db to <FME_HOME>/formatsinfo
See also the SDK documentation to learn more.
