Description

If too many plugins appear in the WordPress admin sometimes the question appear if there is a way to move them out of sight without deleting them.
This plugin is able to do this task.
Define a folder under Tools -> Plugin Mover and then go to plugins admin page and choose to move plugins to your defined folder.
Afterwards you can see them by ftp in the defined folder.

Faq

Is there a way to set another folder as my plugin folder?

Good question.
Go to wp-config.php and put in these

define( ‘WP_PLUGIN_DIR’, $_SERVER[‘DOCUMENT_ROOT’] . ‘/blog/wp-content/plugins’ );

define( ‘WP_PLUGIN_URL’, ‘http://example.com/blog/wp-content/plugins’);
