4. How did you run Caddy (give the full command and describe the execution environment)?

Using native Windows 10 64bit command line tool opened with system administrator privileges. The command was executed from within Caddy directory:
caddy.exe -agree -email name@email.com -log C:\Caddy\logs\Caddy.log

5. Please paste any relevant HTTP request(s) here.

6. What did you expect to see?

7. What did you see instead (give full error messages and/or log)?

2019/03/15 17:00:26 Caddyfile:42 - Error during parsing: Unknown directive 'dyndns'

8. Why is this a bug, and how do you think this should be fixed?

'dyndns' plugin is not being detected or is not being added during the process of building Caddy.

9. What are you doing to work around the problem in the meantime?

I read that it's possible to compile Caddy manually which I'm willing to try.

10. Please link to any related issues, pull requests, and/or discussion.

Hi, unfortunately since you did not fill out the issue template, we don't have enough information to assist you. :( If you will update your post to answer the questions in the bug report template, we can help and reopen the issue. Thanks!

I updated the information. Please, let me know if something is still missing. Thanks.

@Zachar2 Thanks. Upon investigating, it seems that the plugin author has not submitted a pull request to add this directive to Caddy: linkonoid/caddy-dyndns#1

Hence, Caddy doesn't recognize it unless you do it manually.

This is something that will have to be resolved by the plugin authors -- thanks for the question!
