====== Plugins Tab  ======
=====Plugin Management=====
You can enable and disable plugins from the Plugin Management screen.

By default, each plugin is //inactive//, and you need to explicitly //activate// a plugin in order for it to become functional. Deactivating plugins can be useful when faults and errors occur; plugins can be activated one by one to trace faults.
===== Deleting Plugins =====

There is currently no interface to delete plugins and their files from within GetSimple. If you want to remove a plugin, you can use an FTP client and delete a plugin's files & folders from within ''/path/to/getsimple/plugins/''. Deleting a plugin's file(s) will automatically **disable** that particular plugin. 

**Please note:** Most plugins save their data inside the ''/path/to/getsimple/data/other/'' folder. Leaving data files in here from removed/disabled plugins usually will not harm your installation, but it would be best if you removed these at the same time as you remove the plugin.
