Learn about the sets of WordPress plugins that can be installed by default.
The WordPress blog installation includes a number of optional settings and plugins, small applications that can add features and functionality to a WordPress blog. If you choose the default plugin set, we will turn on a page theme and enable a couple of basic plugins. Other sets add more plugins. After installation, you will be able to install more plugins right away.
No matter which installation process you choose, you will be able to activate and deactivate available WordPress settings and plugins at any time from your WordPress Dashboard or the WP Toolkit.
When installing WordPress via the WP Toolkit, it gives seven options of plugin/theme sets to install along with WordPress by default. The seven sets are:
The plugins that appear in the different sets are:
