Please explain how to make a plugin work. Specifically, I do not know what code and where to include for to actually use the functionality of the plugin (say Contact Form). Should I include it in the theme or on the page, should I include it in the <head> or in the <body> section?
Thanks so much.
Did you read the readme, installation notes, howto attached to the plugin's archive or visited developer website ?
Don't come up with "let's say a plugin", but be specific if you want to get a useful solution.
Yes I did. I also read the Wiki.
Here is an example:
"Copy the contents of the page_plugins folder to plugins.
Copy both files in filestomove to /admin/inc/
I modified the /admin/inc/pluginfunctions.php file and have included the modified file as well as the original 3.1 version of the file (pluginfunctions_original.php)."
I believe I did what was suggested. I do not see the plugin functions showing up anywhere on the site.
Basically, what I am asking about is this:
Is there a need to put a code somewhere in the template or page, in <head> or <body> section to make a plugin to work?
Thanks for your help.
