# Plugins

Customize your experience further by utilizing plugins. Add new features and optimize your performance in the easiest way possible. Depending on your plan's configuration, a new instance might come with plugins handpicked by your administrator.

In the "Plugins" section of the instance details, you will find a list of plugins already installed. If there are no plugins installed, you will see the New Plugins section instead, which you can browse and find your first plugins. Both sections can be displayed as a list view or a tile view. Make sure to use the search function if needed.

# Installed plugins

The plugins that came pre-installed with your instance and the ones you have installed yourself can be found here. The list view and the tile view provide the same information and options, albeit in different ways.

# Tile view

  • Each tile includes the name and a short description of the plugin. Clicking on Read More will display the full description.
  • The symbol next to the name indicates if the plugin is up to date.
  • The status is indicated by colored or gray highlight atop each tile.
  • You can deactivate, activate or remove installed plugins by clicking on their respective action button at the bottom of a tile.
  • Perform the actions in bulk by selecting multiple or all plugins at once. You will find the checkboxes to the left of each plugin while your cursor is within the tile's borders. The option to select all will appear on the bar at the bottom of your screen, after you select at least one plugin.
  • You can sort the list by Name or by Status. Use the dropdown menu next to the search function, above the tiles.

# List view

  • The name and a short description of the plugin can be seen on the left. Clicking on Read More will display the full description.

  • One step to the right you will find the installed version of the plugin. The symbol next to the version number indicates if the plugin is up to date.

  • The status is indicated by "Activated" and "Disabled" markers in the "Status" column, as well as by the green or gray highlight on the edge of the list.

  • You can deactivate/activate, update or delete installed plugins by clicking on their respective action button on the far right.

  • Perform the actions in bulk by selecting multiple or all plugins at once. You will find the checkboxes to the far left. The checkbox in the header will select all plugins.

  • You can sort the list by clicking on Name or Status in the header.

# New plugins

To install a completely new plugin, click on the Add New button to the right of the search bar.

Use the search bar to find your desired plugins or pick one of the popular search tags. The search results can be sorted by popularity, rating or recency.

If you cannot find a specific plugin, there is a possibility that it has been blacklisted by your administrator.
