However, &konqueror; will not automatically use the installed plugins: it first has to scan a list of folders. You can initiate the scan by clicking <guibutton +>Scan for new plugins</guibutton +>.

When you use this control module for the first time, this list will already be filled with reasonable paths that should work on most operating systems. If you need to provide a new path, click the <guibutton +>New</guibutton +> button; then you can either enter the new path in the text edit box to the left, or choose a folder using the file dialogue by clicking the <guibutton +>New...</guibutton +> button. As scanning the folders can take a little time, you might want to remove folders from the list where you know that no plugins are installed: do this by selecting a folder and clicking <guibutton +>Remove</guibutton +>.
