    have you copied the plugins to plugin directory ?

    the plugin folder would be something like wp-content/plugins/ folder

    What is the plugin you are trying to add ?

    Be sure the plugin folder is not into another folder

    The default path to the plugin folder is "wp-content/plugins".
    Did you unzip the plugin before uploading and then uploaded the unzipped folder?
    Make sure that your plugin-files aren't nested in a folder. Like "/veryniceplugin/veryniceplugin/verynice.php"

    Most surely the folder is inside another folder. Browse into it and you will see what exactly we are talking bout here.
