--- Comment #1 from David Cook <dcook at prosentient.com.au> ---
The docs probably do need an update.

Caroline's advice is overkill though, and your description of the plugin
migrating to tools after a plugin is installed is inaccurate. Once a "tool
plugin" is installed, it will appear in the Tools menu. Same for a "report
plugin" in Reports I believe. Administration will still be the place to manage
plugins regardless.

As for workflows:

When you update koha-conf.xml, you need to clear the memcached and typically
restart the Starman server so that it clears its own local cached copy of
koha-conf.xml too. (In future, that restart should be done using Bug 21366.)

When you upload a plugin for the first time, you shouldn't need to do anything
to get it to appear. However, if you upgrade a plugin, you will need to restart
Starman so that it loads the latest version of the plugin. (I have speculated
on a way for that restart to be done automatically and gracefully at Bug
30897.)
