type: text/vnd.tiddlywiki
! Standalone Configuration
Follow these instructions when using TiddlyWiki as a standalone HTML file:
# Create a backup of your current TiddlyWiki HTML file ([[just in case|The First Rule of Using TiddlyWiki]])
# Open your TiddlyWiki in a browser
# Open the [[control panel|$:/ControlPanel]] <<.icon $:/core/images/options-button>>, click on the ''Plugins'' tab and then the <<.icon $:/core/images/download-button>> ''Get more plugins'' button
# Click <<.icon $:/core/images/chevron-right>> ''open plugin library'' to open the official plugin library
# When the library listing is loaded:
## Use the tab to select between ''plugins'', ''themes'' and ''languages''
## Use the ''search'' box to search the plugin details
# Click the ''install'' button to install a plugin
# Save your TiddlyWiki <<.icon $:/core/images/save-button>>
# If a yellow warning bar appears at the top of the window, refresh the window so that TiddlyWiki completes installation of the plugin <<.icon $:/core/images/refresh-button>>
#* <<.from-version "5.1.22">> It is no longer necessary to refresh TiddlyWiki when deleting plugins that support dynamic loading. See PluginMechanism for more details
# The plugin should now be available for use
! Client-Server Configuration
Follow these instructions when using TiddlyWiki under Node.js:
# Identify the plugins you want to install using the ''Plugins'' tab of [[control panel|$:/ControlPanel]] (''don't'' install the plugins from here, though). Plugins are identified by their type (ie language, theme or plugin) and their publisher and title. For example, the plugin `$:/plugins/tiddlywiki/internals` is referred to as ''tiddlywiki/internals''
# Quit the server if it is running
# Edit the `tiddlywiki.info` file (it is in JSON format) and locate the `plugins`, `themes` or `languages` section (see below)
# Add entries corresponding to the plugins you wish to add. Take care to retain commas to separate items, but do not terminate the last item in a list with a comma
# Restart the server
```
