%STARTINCLUDE% ---+ Foswiki Contribs Extensions to Foswiki that are not [[%SYSTEMWEB%.plugins]] %TOC% ---++ Overview The term "Contrib" is used to refer to any package that is not just a simple plugin. Foswiki contribs may * extend the functionality of Foswiki, in a lower-level way than plugins, * or provide alternative implementations for sections of the Foswiki core e.g. user management, or when an extension just can't be implemented as a plugin because it requires very close access to Foswiki internals, * or they might provide other files that Foswiki uses, for example language files, * or they might be packages of topics that implement a "Wiki Application", using the wiki macro language, TML. *Relevant links on Foswiki.org:* * Foswiki:Extensions - list of all contributed contrib packages * Foswiki:Development - where developers get started *See other types of extensions:* [[ContributedAddOns][AddOns]], [[Plugins]], [[Skins]] ---++ Foswiki Contribs Installed on this site %SEARCH{ "1" type="query" scope="topic" topic="*Contrib" nosearch="on" format=" * [[$topic]]" }% ---++ Installing Contribs * Use [[%SCRIPTURLPATH{"configure"}%]] to browse or search the list of extensions available from Foswiki.org, and to install the extension. * Or, use the =tools/extension_installer= script to download and install the extension. * Or, download an extension package from some other source, and unzip it. * Follow any special installation instructions in the Contrib topic. %STOPINCLUDE% --- *Related Topics:* DeveloperDocumentationCategory, AdminDocumentationCategory, Foswiki:Support.PluginsSupplement
