Every client can customize his ruTorrent configuration, add/remove plugins etc. 

DELETING PLUGIN
If you want to remove any plugin, you can do this via SSH with the following command:

rm -rf ~/www/$(whoami).$(hostname)/$(whoami)/rutorrent/plugins/plugin_name

so if you want to remove "create" plugin this command should look like that:

rm -rf ~/www/$(whoami).$(hostname)/$(whoami)/rutorrent/plugins/create

ADDING PLUGIN
Login to SSH and go to ruTorrent plugins path:

cd ~/www/$(whoami).$(hostname)/$(whoami)/rutorrent/plugins

To install any plugin you need to download it to this directory, we will download create plugin which was deleted before:

svn co http://rutorrent.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/plugins/create

If the plugin you want to have installed is compressed, you need to extract it in this directory. For example:
Download file:

wget http://srious.biz/nfo.tar.gz

Extract

tar xzfv nfo.tar.gz

Delete compressed file

rm nfo.tar.gz

The plugin has been installed.
