How did you build out the plugin? You many try out using the scripts/build.sh to build the 1.1M4 plugin upon your own Indigo.
  ECLIPSE_HOME=<dir where you installed your Indigo> scripts/build.sh 1.1M4 <your release name>
You should find the file org.yocto.sdk-<your release name>-<date>-archive.zip after a successful build. Please try install that archive zip file and see if it works.

Do you mean you installed the 1.0 plugin? I don't think 1.0 plugin would work with Indigo.
