One of the great things about the Hybrid theme is its support for multiple plugins.
I carefully chose each of these plugins to support by either their popularity or usefulness.
When I say the theme supports a plugin, I don’t mean that these are the only plugins that can be used. I simply mean that the theme has been tested and the appopriate code has been added to the theme files for you. Not all of these plugins required additional code to be added to the theme files though.
If you decide to use one of these plugins, please note that I am not the developer (except for Cleaner Gallery). I can only help you with these plugins within the scope of the theme. Please read the instructions for using a plugin from the plugin’s page or the author’s website.

How to install a plugin
Each plugin should have its own installation instructions included. I’ll run you through the basic steps here, but this is not a definitive guide on the process.
First, you need to download the plugin, which should be in a .zip file. Then, you need to use your favorite FTP program to upload it to your /wp-content/plugins directory.
Once that’s done, go to your WordPress dashboard to Plugins > Installed. Then, find the plugin you added and click Activate.

Some plugins may require additional configuration at this point.
