Plugins

In addition to the functionality that comes with our themes, we also have the ability to install and activate vetted and secure plugins in order to allow users more flexibility when building their sites. Plugins allow you to add functionality to your site, including adding forms, different ways to display and organize resources, maps, and much more.

The CALS Web Services team is happy to discuss potential functionality that may be achieved by the addition of a particular plugin. However, all plugin requests must undergo a review process to evaluate the performance, security and accessibility of the plugin. We are not able to allow users to download and install plugins themselves due to security implications. Please visit our plugin guidelines page to learn more.
