Plugins are modules extending Dialer Queen's functionality. Such useful functions as hot keys and time synchronization are realized by means of plugins. Some plugins will work right after Dialer Queen starts (for example, HotKeys plug-in), others works only when you are online (for example, Atomic Clock plug-in or Graphical Transfer Meter plug-in). Note: plug-in must be started in order to start working. You may start or stop plug-in any time, but results of it's work may be visible only when you're online. For example, you can start Atomic Clock plug-in at any time, but the time synchronization itself occurs only when you are online.

Each plug-in can be started from the "Plugins" tab in the options window or using Dialer Queen's system menu. Do not muddle checkmarks in the options with checkmarks in the menu! Checkmarks in the options window mean that checked plug-in should be autostarted upon Dialer Queen's startup, while checkmarks in the system menu mean that checked plug-in is running right now!

Dialer Queen already contains one plugin - Graphical Transfer Meter. It shows network traffic in graphical form.

By default, Dialer Queen searches plugins in ProgramPath\plugins folder, where ProgramPath is the path where you installed Dialer Queen into.

You can find additional plugins on the Web site of Dialer Queen. Once you have downloaded a new plugin (setup file), simply doubleclick it to install to the Dialer Queen's program path. You'll have to restart Dialer Queen in order to new plugin become available.
