.jar(matching your version). - In the panel go to Files → the
pluginsfolder. - Upload the

After the first start, each plugin creates its folder inside plugins/ with its configuration files (config.yml). Edit them and restart to apply.
Mods and plugins are not the same: mods (Forge/Fabric) go in mods/, plugins (Paper/Spigot) go in plugins/.
