Installing a plugin

If the plugin you're installing comes with its own instructions, please consult those before following any steps in this article.

If you encounter issues while trying to install a plugin, and you believe they are caused by that specific plugin, please primarily try to contact the plugin creator before making an issue in the Wingman repository.

Easy: Home folder method

1. Locate the plugin folder in your user account's home folder:

Windows: C:\Users\<USERNAME>\Wingman\plugins

Linux: /home/<USERNAME>/Wingman/plugins

OS X: /Users/<USERNAME>/Wingman/plugins

Replace <USERNAME> with the name of the user account you're currently logged in as on your computer.

2. Obtain the plugin, preferably an archived (.jar) version of it.
3. If the plugin you're installing consists of one or more .jar file(s), place them inside the plugins folder.

Otherwise, if the plugin files contain a resources folder, it can be assumed that all files and folders near that folder can safely be put in the plugins folder.
