# Plugins Folder Absolute Path

 * I recently installed WP 2.71 in the sub folder of my joomla site. After WP installation,
   I installed plugins. When I checked on the plugin, it did not show in the list,
   there was actually no list at all. So, I guessed the plugins foler pathway might
   be wrongly installed.
 * True enough, there was no plugins folder in the wp-content folder.
    After using
   ftp, I noticed that was one plugins (the original for Joomla 1.59) folder under
   the root directory, and the installed plugins are residing inside now.
 * How do I change the wp—> plugins folder path to tell the installation to put 
   in wp plugin folder instead of Joomla folder?
 * Thanks in advance. Please tell me specifically which file(s) to change and the
   absolute “path” for this to work.
