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, add [[type/auth]] methods, do other [[type/useful]] stuff, add [[type/chrome]] to the wiki, or just have [[type/fun]].

There's documentation if you want to [[write]] your own plugins, or you can install and use plugins [[contributed|contrib]] by others.

To enable plugins, use the --plugin switch described in [[usage]], or the equivalent add_plugins line in [[ikiwiki.setup]]. Enable the [[goodstuff]] plugin to get a nice selection of plugins that will fit most uses of ikiwiki.
