# Installation

[![Cooked Guides - Installation](https://img.youtube.com/vi/ZgVGv4iva6s/0.jpg)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgVGv4iva6s)

If you haven't installed the plugin yet, head over to the *Plugins > Add New* screen when logged in as an Administrator:

![WordPress Add Plugins Button](https://github.com/XjSv/Cooked/assets/107681/b04d44cf-c46c-453d-8a85-1a51045d7d1f)

Use the *Search* field in the upper right and search for "cooked" or "recipes". When it shows up (should be near the top), just click *Install Now* to install it. Then click *Activate*. This completes the installation! Now you can head over to the *Recipes > Settings* screen to continue.
