There shouldn't be any folder called incplugins. There should be a folder called inc and within that folder there should be a folder (sub-folder) called plugins thus the path is .inc/plugins.
Why don't you do this. Log in to your file manager and do the following:
1. Extract inc/plugins from the zip then in your file manager go to public_html/inc/plugins and upload rssfeedposter.php
2. Extract inc/tasks from the zip then in your file manager go to public_html/inc/tasks and upload rssfeedposter.php (The one you extracted from tasks)
3. Extract the English language files and upload them to the .inc/languages/english
Then go to ACP>Configuration>Plugins
P.S: There are two rssfeedposter.php files and they both seem to contain different scripts so be careful of what you are uploading.
Created the folder incplugins under the folder forum.batr.net
rssfeedposter.php inside incplugins
The good news is that
RSS Feed Poster (1.5)
Auto creates posts from RSS feeds at specified intervals
Created by vbgamer45 - now appears in plugins in the dashboard. Have a button to activate. However, I get the error:
/home/forumbat/forum.batr.net/inc/languages/english/admin/rssfeedposter.lang.php does not exist
Ideas?

Uploaded rssfeedposter.php into the folder /home/forumbat/.incplugins
Nothing changed in dashboad on MyBB.
What next? Again it looks like the rssfeedposter.php is extracted from the zip.
Sorry for being such a pest, just don't have the drill down yet. However, making progress because of all the help.

You need to upload rssfeedposter.lang.php to .inc/languages/english/admin after extracting it from the downloaded zip.
Confirm that rssfeedposter.php (do not understand why .lang is part of the file you cite) is now in languages/english/admin
Still get the same error in dashboad plugins
Now the same rssfeedposter.php is in the folder - incplugins
- that I created earlier. I can delete it if necessary, but your instructions are complete.
What do you recommend?
Download teamviewer and send me a message with your teamviewer ID and password.
Ok 1st now you know cpanel and filemanegar so open filemanegar

Just reached Maia host. They fixed the error and the forum is back online. However, the RSS plugin no longer appears in the dashboard.
I'm available for teamviewer when you are.

Problem Solved. Batr was uploading all the files on root of the forum instead of uploading them to the instructed directories. Batr mistakenly created a folder on the root of their forum called incplugins where they were uploading the plugin file only as they were unaware that their MyBB copy already has the includes directory. On teamviewer, I have uploaded the files to the directories they belong to and activate the plugin for them.
