Search & Install Method<br />

You also have the option to search for plugins to install<br />

from the WordPress.org Plugin Directory, directly from<br />

the Add New page. Click the tabs on this page to see<br />

featured, popular, newest and plugins you’ve marked as<br />

favorites.<br />

1. Use the search bar to search for the plugin of your<br />

choice.<br />

2. Click the Install Now button.<br />

3. Once the plugin is installed, just click Activate.<br />

Manual Installation Method<br />

You can also add plugins manually by uploading them<br />

with FTP software. This is more complicated and not for<br />

the novice user. You’ll need to download the plugin file to<br />

your computer and unzip it. This will give you a folder on<br />

your computer with all the plugin files. Then, using an FTP<br />

program, upload the plugin folder to the<br />

wp-content/plugins folder on your site. Then go to the<br />

Plugins screen and you can find your new plugin in the<br />

list. Click ‘Activate’ to get started.<br />
