Plugins are tools which provide additional functionality to your
application. To install a plugin you generally just need to put the
plugin file into your 'wp-content/plugins' directory. Once a plugin is
installed, you may activate it or deactivate it from the Plugins menu in
your WP administration. Generally
the Plugin installation is a straight-forward process. In most cases it
is enough to upload the plugin under the 'wp-content/plugins' directory
for the WordPress installation and activate it from the administrator
backend. In
WordPress 2.7 and above you can install plugins directly from the admin
area. Download the plugin to your computer, then log in to your WP
admin area and go to Plugins > Add New. Browse to the plugin archive
and select it. Then click Install Now and the plugin will be installed
shortly. The
removal is also straight-forward in most cases. Simply remove the
directory for the plugin you would like to uninstall and it will be
automatically deactivated.
Still always bear in mind that not all
plugins are easy to install, so always refer to their documentation and
installation instructions first.
