How Do I Add a Plugin to My Free WordPress Blog?

Adding a plugin to your WordPress blog is simple. First, you need to find the plugin you want to add. You can find plugins on the official WordPress Plugin Directory or by searching for keywords on Google or other online search engines. Once you have found the plugin you want, click on the link to download it. Once you have downloaded the plugin, open it up in your computer’s file explorer. Next, find the folder where the plugin was downloaded and double-click on the plugin’s .zip file to open it up. Once the .zip file has been opened, you will see a folder called “plugins” inside of it. Inside of this folder, you will see a folder called “install”.

Inside of this folder, you will see a folder called “wp-content/plugins”. Inside of this folder, you will see a file called “default-config.php”. The default-config.php file is where all of the settings for the plugin will be stored. To add the plugin to your blog, you first need to open this file up and locate the line that says “add_plugin(‘yourpluginname’);”. After locating this line, replace ‘yourpluginname’ with the name of your plugin and press Enter buttons. After replacing this line with your own plugin name, press Enter again to save the changes to default-config.php file. Finally,press Save Changes button to save your changes to the default-config.php file and install your new plugin into your WordPress blog.
