    I can’t seem to find where WordPress keeps information about which plugin who is activated or not and what it does. Where is this information? I thought that it would be a database for this….

    Just trying to understand how WordPress workes.

    Thanks!

    I believe the active plugins are kept in the wp_options table and the row where option_name=active_plugins.

    In general, I think the wp-content/plugins folder is checked to return the list of all plugins.
