How to install a WordPress Plugin

Installing a WordPress Plugin is very easily. Here are some basic instructions on how to install a plugin in WordPress.

1. Download Twitter User in zip format from the WordPress Directory.
2. Install the plugin in your WordPress powered blog. There are two ways to do this :
   1. Upload the zip file directly to your blog at www.yourblogsdomain.com/wp-admin/plugin-install.php. If you prefer to use this method, please make sure you have your hosting username and password ftp details available. Please note, older versions of WordPress may not have the option to upload plugins directly through your blog admin area.
   2. Alternatively, you can upload the plugin to your blog using File Transfer Protocol. All you need to do is unzip the plugin and upload the plugin directly to www.yourblogsdomain.com/wp-content/plugins/.
3. Activate the plugin at www.yourblogsdomain.com/wp-admin/plugins.php

After you activated the plugin you may have to add some information to a settings area or add some code to your blogs theme before the plugin works but this depends on the plugin so make sure you always read the developers instructions.
