How to install plugins (Oxide)
The Rust Plugins section lets you browse and install Oxide plugins directly from your panel without uploading files manually.
Your server must be running the Oxide modding framework before you can install plugins. If you haven't set it up yet, see How to change the modding framework.
Step 1
Access your Game Panel and navigate to your Rust server. Go to the Rust Plugins section in the left sidebar.
Step 2
Browse the available plugins or use the Search field to find a specific one. Click the Install button on the plugin you want to install.
Step 3
A detail window will appear showing the plugin description, author, and version. Optionally enable AUTO UPDATE to keep the plugin updated automatically, then click Install Plugin.
Step 4
Once installed, the plugin card will show a Delete button instead. Restart your server from the Console tab for the plugin to take effect.
To remove a plugin, click the Delete button on its card in the Rust Plugins section.
✅ That's it! Your plugin is now installed and active on your server. If you have any problems, contact us via Discord (opens in a new tab) so we can help you.
