Kanboard Documentation

Plugin Installation

Since Kanboard v1.2.8, installing plugins from the web interface is disabled by default for security reasons.

To install, update, and remove plugins from the user interface, you must meet these requirements:

  • The plugin directory must be writable by the web server user.
  • The PHP Zip extension must be available on your server.
  • The config parameter PLUGIN_INSTALLER must be set to true.

Only administrators are allowed to install plugins from the user interface.

By default, only plugins listed on Kanboard’s website are available. You can change the directory URL by using the config option PLUGIN_API_URL.

If you are using the Docker image, refer to the Kanboard Docker documentation for examples of configuration.

  • There is no code review or approval process for submitting a plugin.
  • It is the responsibility of the Kanboard instance owner to validate if a plugin is legitimate.
