Activate a plugin in WordPress

Plugins add extra features to your WordPress site. Follow the steps below to activate a WordPress plugin.

  1. Sign in to WordPress.
  2. On the left-side menu, select Plugins > Installed Plugins.
  3. Find the plugin you want to activate and select Activate.

    Note: If you can't find the plugin in the plugin list, it may be because it's not installed yet. You should install the plugin first to be able to activate it.

Your plugin is now active and you can follow the plugin's documentation to set up and configure it.
