Not likely abandoned. Give the author some time to update it.
It hasn’t been supported since last year when Artisan 2 was released.
for toolbar editor, you can try lord of the toolbars from frdo, it does the same things.
I downloaded the newest version of flextools component browser (2.15.1) from the website, and it is now working. So only four extensions not working now.
I will add Skalp to the currently unsupported
this works for shape loader, but not for artisan or clothworks
Is there any way to make this automaticly load anytime sketchup is opened.
actually, even though the error message always shows up, it is available in the extensions menu, and just the toolbar doesn’t show up, even after I close and restart sketchup.
Yes, by creating an extension that just runs that code instead of building a custom menu or toolbar. That’s a horrible hack, though. I won’t do it myself but it shouldn’t be difficult.

Note that this might be as simple as pasting the lines in a file called FIXIT.rb which you put in the directory C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2024\SketchUp\Plugins\. This file will be executed at startup.
Flex tools is ok now with an update
Thea render doesn’t give a 2024 Sketchup installer
extension Ruby Console+ doesn’t work too 
You can code in Visual Studio and use @ene_su plugin Extension | SketchUp Extension Warehouse
… a old but very handy .rb called JF Custom Toolbars, created by Jim Folz and Dan Rathbun back in 2008, super simple, has finally met its end with SU2024
It was especially handy because it gave icons to commands/tools that dont normally have a tool bar icon. Also it meant one could have just one icon from any standard toolset and drop the rest if you dont use them, combine into one toolbar … bob’s your uncle…
Here was my old custom toolset:
fieldOfView
placeCamera
look
hideRest
hideSelected
hideSimilar
protractor
text
zoomExtents
zoomPrev
zoomNext
axis
followme
offset
closeActive
closeAllActive
toggleGuides
toggleHidden
toggleXray
toggleAxes
prefsShortcuts
How so?
The latest version I have is ver 1.2.0. I think that there was later versions up around ver 1.5.0 or so (circa 2015.)
It failed to run properly for me into SU2024
Right, but was there any errors in the Ruby Console?
Error:
Ah … well the solution was posted above.
Interesting fact: Plugin developers have had like 14 years (at least) to correct their use of that method alias. I myself, never used it in any of my code as the Ruby 1.8.6 documentation clearly stated it was obsolete then, circa SketchUp v8 (2010.)
I have no idea about Ruby sorry.
