Plugins provide a system of extending DokuWiki's features without the need to hack the original code (and so again on each update). Below is a list of ready to use plugins created by DokuWiki's users.
A Plugin is installed by putting it into its own folder beyond lib/plugins/. For many plugins this can be done automatically using the plugin manager. Be sure to read Warning on Plugins.
This is the list of all plugin currently available for DokuWiki. You may filter the list by tags from the cloud to the left or by type:
