I Installed the package "vegan" but cant seem to run it. When I use the command library(vegan) I get this message

this message.

Any ideas? I normally just use R cmdr so excuse me if this is a silly question.

Also: Is there any plugin to cmdr for NMDS ordination that I can use instead?

    That message shouldn't actually prevent you from using the `vegan` package. It appears to have loaded just fine. Is there something else that isn't working? – MrFlick May 08 '18 at 16:41

That wasn't a "problem". It was only a "message" and not even a particularly dangerous message. It was telling you that the vegan package had a function of the same name as another function in the pls package. If you know that you will be using the scores function with the syntax of the pls::scores function at a later time, then you will need to use it with that form. If you just use scores you will get the function as it exists in pkg:vegan.

I'm being mute about the second part (although it may be premised incorrectly on your anxiety about the message, in which case the question is moot). Multipart questions are discouraged on SO.

  • OK I see. Im very new on anything R not cmdr (and a tiny bit of studio) so you might just have to excuse me if any of this seems ridicously simple to everyone else. But after I get that message nothing opens.. Im just stuck in the R console with that message. – Sus May 08 '18 at 18:12
  • You aren't stuck. The R console is waiting for you to type in a command. Try typing: `help(pac=vegan)` – IRTFM May 08 '18 at 19:34
  • There is no problem with using vegan. There may be a problem, if you want to use the scores function for pls object. Or then not: the packages may work just fine together. But be beware. I don't know how these two packages work together. – Jari Oksanen May 05 '23 at 19:30

To answer your question about Rcmdr plugin for NMDS: check BiodiversityR package that provides an Rcmdr GUI to a part of vegan (plus more).
