I had to create `cssanim` folder manually and unzip the plugin inside it as it doesn’t contain it. Others were fine – so I just unzipped it. * Next step was to add those plugins to the `wp-content/plugins/ckeditor-for-wordpress/ ckeditor.config.js` file, like this: * ``` $ cat ckeditor.config.js /* Copyright (c) 2003-2015, CKSource - Frederico Knabben.

',youtube,fontawesome,cssanim' : 'youtube,fontawesome,cssanim' ); }; ``` * I’ve just added this line: `config.extraPlugins += (config.extraPlugins ? ', youtube,fontawesome,cssanim' : 'youtube,fontawesome,cssanim' );` * And that’s all. I see all of them working inside the CKEditor. - This reply was modified 9 years, 7 months ago by [vokiel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vokiel/). * Thread Starter [senfgurke](https://wordpress.org/support/users/senfgurke/) * (@senfgurke) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-external-plugins-for-ckeditor-in-wp/#post-8364389) * Hi [@vokiel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vokiel/) , * puuuuh Perfect that’s the reason why I asked you as a professional man.
