How Can We Help?
Available Plugins
Sites.temple.edu has plugins that site admins can activate to extend the features and functionality of their site. Plugins are disabled by default. It’s recommended to only activate the plugins that you require. Having many plugins needlessly activated can slow down your site and clutter the admin menus.
New plugins can be requested by opening a help ticket. However, please note that not all requests are approved and the approval process can take over a month to complete.
For additional assistance with any of these plugins, please open a help ticket.
