You should be able to install plugins via the admin on a clean WP install, assuming they're available from the usual sources. Otherwise, using FTP or similar to stick them in the wp-content/plugins directory should do it.
If you configure your FTP client to merge rather than overwrite remote folders (I think this is probably the default; it is for my FTP client, Transmit) then you shouldn't break anything else, at least in theory.
If you're thinking of trying to merge folders like wp-include, you'll need to make sure you're on exactly the same WP version on each side. But you shouldn't really have to do that.
Relevant WP docs (which are generally very good, BTW): https://codex.wordpress.org/Managing...alling_Plugins

Wordpress on Azure
I'm creating a test word press site on Azure using a copy of wordpress code and database from a client.
So far, I've created a fresh wordpress site using in-app database in Azure. I've created the database ok using client script and I've pointed the fresh wp install at this database.
So that works ok, I can login using the clients credentials but obviously, the plugins don't work and the clients content are not there.
I have a copy of their code, can I just ftp certain folders up and overwrite the contents of the azure wp site or is this just going to break everything?
I understand that there are backup / restore plugins but I don't really want to touch the clients live website at the moment.
Any help would be nice but I start diving in copying stuff around.Tags: None
