# Support for new plugin metadata
The plugin manifest now supports new properties to better describe and present your plugins on Joplin Plugins website. Those are the `icons`, `categories`, `screenshots` and `promo_tile` properties.
## Icon
This is the icon that will be used in various plugin pages, including in your main plugin page. It will be shown on the main result page too. If not provided, a default icon will be displayed instead.
## Category
You can supply one or more category for your plugin - it will be used to filter the plugins on the website.
## Screenshots
Again you can provide one or more screenshots to present your plugin on the website.

## Promo tile
The promo tile is an optional image that is used to display your plugin on the main website page. If no promo tile is supplied, the icon will be used instead.
