Managing Plugins in WordPress is similar to managing other content like Pages or Posts. To manage Plugins, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins. You can add new Plugins, view all installed Plugins, active Plugins, inactive Plugins, and recently active Plugins. You can perform actions on multiple Plugins at once, such as activating, deactivating, updating, or deleting. The information displayed includes Plugin name, description, and functions. You can change settings in the Screen Options section to customize the display. This article helps users easily manage and activate/deactivate Plugins. The next article will cover the Plugin Editor section.
