-Plugins can be used to add additional features to ikiwiki. It's possible to
-[[write]] your own plugins, or you can install and use plugins contributed by
-others.
+Most of ikiwiki's [[features]] are implemented as plugins. Beyond the
+[[type/core]] features, there are plugins to [[type/format]] text,
+use [[type/tags]], show [[type/meta]] information, do other [[type/useful]]
+stuff, add [[type/chrome]] to the wiki, or just have [[type/fun]].
-The ikiiki package includes some standard plugins that are installed and
-by default. These include [[inline]], [[pagecount]], and [[brokenlinks]].
-Of these, [[inline]] is enabled by default.
+There's documentation if you want to [[write]] your own plugins, or you can
+install and use plugins contributed by others.
-To enable other plugins, use the `--plugin` switch described in [[usage]], or the equivilant line in
-[[ikiwiki.setup]].
+The [[mdwn]], [[inline]], and [[htmlscrubber]] plugins are enabled by default.
-## Third party plugins
+To enable other plugins, use the `--plugin` switch described in [[usage]],
+or the equivalent `add_plugins` line in [[ikiwiki.setup]].

+# Plugin directory

+Add all plugins here. Or add ideas to the [[todo|todo/plugin]] page.

+# Installing third party plugins
Plugins are perl modules and should be installed somewhere in the perl
module search path. See the @INC list at the end of the output of `perl -V`
inside the perl search path. For example, if your perl looks in
`/usr/local/lib/site_perl` for modules, you can locally install ikiwiki
plugins to `/usr/local/lib/site_perl/IkiWiki/Plugin`
