This tutorial will teach you how to manage your plugins in WordPress.
- First you need to log in and go to your Dashboard. On the left hand side you will see a column of items. Near the bottom is Plugins.
- Click on this link and expand the menu.
- You will see Plugins, Add New and Editor. Click on Plugins. The page that comes up will show you a list of all your installed plugins.
- At the bottom of each individual plugin are three links – Activate, Edit and Delete. To Activate any plugin, click on its Activate link.
- At the top of the page, is a link to Add New plugins. Click on the Add New, and it will take you to a Install Plugins page.
- To find more plugins, you may browse the WordPress Plugin Directory simply by clicking on the link in the top paragraph.
- To Edit plugins, click on the Editor in the menu on the left hand side. This will allow you to select and edit your plugins.
- However, this is only for the advanced user, as editing can break the plugin rather easily.
This completes this tutorial. You now know how to manage your plugins in WordPress.
