Before you can install plugins on your Rust server, you will need to install Oxide. If you need assistance doing so, you can find our guide on the topic here. In this article, we are going to use the plugin Gather Manager as an example, however, these steps will work for any Oxide plugin you wish to install.
# Installing Oxide Plugins
Any Oxide plugin can be installed on your server by uploading your chosen plugin's .cs file to your servers /plugins folder.
- Download your desired plugin from uMod.
- On your control panel, Stop your server.
- Navigate to the Files tab and locate the directory
/oxide/plugins/.
- Upload the downloaded .cs file and restart your server.
If you have followed these steps properly, the plugin should be loaded and functional after the server starts. If the plugin does not work, please try following the steps again to ensure they are followed properly. If you have followed these steps properly and you cannot use the plugin, ensure you are an admin on the server, following our guide located here.
