Issues with macOS Plugin Installation from Template

Hello!

I started development on a plugin for OBS v27 using OBS' plugin template, but I am experiencing issues installing the plugin on macOS. OBS v27 built from source, as well as OBS v28 both recognize the ".plugin" file built by the plugin template. However, the plugin will not load or even be recognized on the release version of OBS v27.2.4. It looks like the v27 release version expects a ".so" file and does not recognize the ".plugin" file built by the plugin template.

How can I get the release version of OBS v27 to recognize my ".plugin" file? Also, why does OBS v27 built from source recognize plugins as ".plugin" files, whereas the release version (from the installer) solely recognize ".so" for plugins? Thanks!

I've attached logs for both versions of OBS- v27 where my plugin (attention-tracker) is never loaded, and v28 where the plugin (attention-tracker) loads successfully.
