Hello!

I’m curious about the way the plugins system works with the open source version on GitHub. Am I able to use all plugins if I install it on a self-hosted site, or perhaps just the ones listed under Basic?

Also wondering about this for the feature comparison table on the [Discourse pricing | Discourse - Civilized Discussion](http://discourse.org/pricing) page. Which features are available to Discourse communities running off of the open source GitHub version?

Thank you!

You’ll be pleased to hear EVERYTHING is available using the self-hosted version and the code on GitHub.

It’s the same code we run on our hosting platform and not restricted in any way.
