-Download the egg file for the selected plugin. 
+=== Determine Python Version ===
 
-Plugin eggs have the ''Python'' version encoded in the filename and will only load in Deluge if the versions match. (e.g. ''Plugin-1.0-'''py2.6'''.egg'' is a Python 2.6 egg.)
+Plugin eggs have the ''Python'' version encoded in the filename and will only load in Deluge if the Python versions match.
+ * Verify Deluge [wiki:Troubleshooting#PythonVersion Python version].
 
+=== Download Plugin Egg ===
 
- Linux/*nix:: Most distros use Python 2.7 as default, so you'll probably need ''Plugin-1.0-**py2.7**.egg''. You can verify Python version with: `python --version`.
+Download the plugin `egg` for the Deluge Python version, e.g.
+ * ''Plugin-1.0-'''py2.6'''.egg'' is a ''Python 2.6'' egg.
+ * ''Plugin-1.0-'''py2.7'''.egg'' is a ''Python 2.7'' egg.
 
- Windows:: Windows users must download the egg that corresponds to the python version included with the Deluge Windows installer they used. If you used a Deluge installer with python 2.7 (such as ''deluge-1.3.11-win32-**py2.7**-setup.exe''), then use the egg with name ending with ''py2.7.egg''). Else, use ''py2.6.egg''.
-
- MacOSX:: For Deluge.app it is ''2.7''.
-
-
-'''For Plugins that don't have all Python versions available:''' It is possible to rename them to match your installed Python version (e.g. ''Plugin-1.0-'''py2.6'''.egg'' ''to'' ''Plugin-1.0-'''py2.7'''.egg'') and should still run normally.

+Copy the plugin `egg` to the Deluge [wiki:Faq#WheredoesDelugestoreitssettingsconfig config] `plugins` directory:
 
 === Client-Server Setups ===
 
 When running the Deluge daemon, `deluged` and Deluge client on a separate computers, the plugin must be installed on both computers.
-When installing the egg through the GTK client it will be placed in the plugins directory of your computer, as well as copied over to the computer running the daemon.

+Installing a plugin egg through the GTK client will be copy the egg to both the plugins directory of your computer, as well as the computer running the daemon.
 
 ''Note: If the Python versions on the server and desktop computer do not match, you will have to copy the egg to the server manually.''
 
-For example in the setup below you will have to install the py2.6 egg on the desktop as normal but then manually install the py2.7 egg onto the server.
