+Plugins
+=======
+
+Starting from the 0.7.5 version, poezio supports plugins.
+Here is a quick howto and a plugin index.
+
+
+Setting up plugins
+------------------
+
+Poezio seeks the plugins in the :file:`~/.local/share/poezio/plugins/` dir (more
+generally, the :file:`$XDG_DATA_HOME/poezio/plugins/` dir), but that can be changed
+by setting the :term:`plugins_dir` option to the directory where you want to
+put your plugins.
+
+This means that if you want to use a plugin, you have to copy it (the .py file or the directory) into :term:`plugins_dir`.
+
+
+Plugin autoload
+---------------
+
+Use the :term:`plugins_autoload` optionto select which plugins should be
+loaded on startup. The value is a list of plugin names separated by colons,
+e.g.
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+
+ plugins_autoload = gpg:tell:exec
+
+Plugin configuration
+--------------------
+
+Most plugins will manage their configuration internally, and you do not (and
+should not) have to edit it, but some (e.g. mpd_client or gpg) require manual
+editing (the :term:`/set` command can be used, but it is not pleasant to set
+multiple values with it).
+
+The plugin configuration directory is located in :file:`~/.config/poezio/plugins/`
+(or :file:`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/poezio/plugins/`) and the file related to a specific
+plugin is named :file:`plugin_name.cfg`. The configuration options should usually be
+inside a section named after the plugin (sections are delimited with ``[]``).
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+
+ [plugin_name]
+ key = value
+ other_key = other_value
+
