====== Managing plugins ======


GroIMP plugins are located in directories by default:
  - ''/path/where/groimpisinstalled/plugins/''
  - ''~/.grogra.de-platform/plugins/''

Additionally, it is possible to add a directory with the argument ''-p /path/to/directory/''. (e.g. ''java -jar core.jar -p /dir/'').

When GroIMP starts it will automatically load every plugin in the given paths. 

**Note:** It is possible to //ignore// a plugin path by adding it to the //blacklisted// file in ''~/.grogra.de-platform/blacklisted''.


===== Manually ====

It is possible to manually add or remove a plugin by simply copying/deleting them from the loaded paths.

The added plugin needs to be compiled and follow the [[:01_user_documentation:11_plugin:01_structure|compiled plugin structure]].

**Note:** If you do not have the permission to delete a repository from the GroIMP installation folder, you can prevent the plugin from being loaded by adding it to the //blacklisted// file.
