+Configuration File
+==================
+
+As already mentioned in previous sections, Pyrogram can also be configured by the use of an INI file.
+This page explains how this file is structured in Pyrogram, how to use it and why.
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+The idea behind using a configuration file is to help keeping your code free of settings (private) information such as
+the API Key and Proxy without having you to even deal with how to load such settings. The configuration file, usually
+referred as ``config.ini`` file, is automatically loaded from the root of your working directory; all you need to do is
+fill in the necessary parts.
+
+.. note::
+
+    The configuration file is optional, but recommended. If, for any reason, you prefer not to use it, there's always an
+    alternative way to configure Pyrogram via Client's parameters. Doing so, you can have full control on how to store
+    and load your settings (e.g.: from environment variables).
+
+    Settings specified via Client's parameter have higher priority and will override any setting stored in the
+    configuration file.
+
+
+The config.ini File
+-------------------
+
+By default, Pyrogram will look for a file named ``config.ini`` placed at the root of your working directory, that is,
+the same folder of your running script. You can change the name or location of your configuration file by specifying it
+in your Client's parameter *config_file*.
+
+-   Replace the default *config.ini* file with *my_configuration.ini*:
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+
+        from pyrogram import Client
+
+        app = Client("my_account", config_file="my_configuration.ini")
+
+
+Configuration Sections
+----------------------
+
+These are all the sections Pyrogram uses in its configuration file:
+
+Pyrogram
+^^^^^^^^
+
+The ``[pyrogram]`` section contains your Telegram API credentials *api_id* and *api_hash*.
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+
+    [pyrogram]
+    api_id = 12345
+    api_hash = 0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef
+
+`More info about API Key. <../start/Setup.html#configuration>`_
+
+Proxy
+^^^^^
+
+The ``[proxy]`` section contains settings about your SOCKS5 proxy.
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+
+    [proxy]
+    enabled = True
+    hostname = 11.22.33.44
+    port = 1080
+    username = <your_username>
+    password = <your_password>
+

+the Client parameter "plugins"; the *root* value must match the name of your plugins folder. Your Pyrogram Client
+instance will **automatically** scan the folder upon starting to search for valid handlers and register them for you.
 
 Then you'll notice you can now use decorators. That's right, you can apply the usual decorators to your callback

+instead of the usual ``@app`` (Client instance) and things will work just the same.
+
+Specifying the Plugins to include
+---------------------------------
+
+By default, if you don't explicitly supply a list of plugins, every valid one found inside your plugins root folder will
+be included by following the alphabetical order of the directory structure (files and subfolders); the single handlers
+found inside each module will be, instead, loaded in the order they are defined, from top to bottom.
+
+.. note::
+
+    Remember: there can be at most one handler, within a group, dealing with a specific update. Plugins with overlapping
+    filters included a second time will not work. Learn more at `More on Updates <MoreOnUpdates.html>`_.
+
+This default loading behaviour is usually enough, but sometimes you want to have more control on what to include (or
+exclude) and in which exact order to load plugins. The way to do this is to make use of ``include`` and ``exclude``
+keys, either in the *config.ini* file or in the dictionary passed as Client argument. Here's how they work:
+
+- If both ``include`` and ``exclude`` are omitted, all plugins are loaded as described above.
+- If ``include`` is given, only the specified plugins will be loaded, in the order they are passed.
+- If ``exclude`` is given, the plugins specified here will be unloaded.
+
+The ``include`` and ``exclude`` value is a **list of strings**. Each string containing the path of the module relative
+to the plugins root folder, in Python notation (dots instead of slashes).
+
+    E.g.: ``subfolder.module`` refers to ``plugins/subfolder/module.py``, with ``root="plugins"``.
+
+You can also choose the order in which the single handlers inside a module are loaded, thus overriding the default
+top-to-bottom loading policy. You can do this by appending the name of the functions to the module path, each one
+separated by a blank space.
+
+    E.g.: ``subfolder.module fn2 fn1 fn3`` will load *fn2*, *fn1* and *fn3* from *subfolder.module*, in this order.
+
+Examples
+^^^^^^^^
+
+Given this plugins folder structure with three modules, each containing their own handlers (fn1, fn2, etc...), which are
+also organized in subfolders:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+    myproject/
+        plugins/
+            subfolder1/
+                plugins1.py

+            plugins0.py
+                ...
+        ...
+
+- Load every handler from every module, namely *plugins0.py*, *plugins1.py* and *plugins2.py* in alphabetical order
+  (files) and definition order (handlers inside files):
+
+    Using *config.ini* file:

+    .. code-block:: ini
+
+        [plugins]
+        root = plugins
+
+    Using *Client*'s parameter:

+
+Load/Unload Plugins at Runtime
+------------------------------
+
+In the `previous section <#specifying-the-plugins-to-include>`_ we've explained how to specify which plugins to load and
+which to ignore before your Client starts. Here we'll show, instead, how to unload and load again a previously
+registered plugins at runtime.
+
+Each function decorated with the usual ``on_message`` decorator (or any other decorator that deals with Telegram updates
+) will be modified in such a way that, when you reference them later on, they will be actually pointing to a tuple of
+*(handler: Handler, group: int)*. The actual callback function is therefore stored inside the handler's *callback*
+attribute. Here's an example:
+
+- ``plugins/handlers.py``
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+        :emphasize-lines: 5, 6
+
+        @Client.on_message(Filters.text & Filters.private)
+        def echo(client, message):
+            message.reply(message.text)
+
+        print(echo)
+        print(echo[0].callback)
+
+-   Printing ``echo`` will show something like ``(<MessageHandler object at 0x10e3abc50>, 0)``.
+
+-   Printing ``echo[0].callback``, that is, the *callback* attribute of the first eleent of the tuple, which is an
+    Handler, will reveal the actual callback ``<function echo at 0x10e3b6598>``.
+
+Unloading
+^^^^^^^^^
+
+In order to unload a plugin, or any other handler, all you need to do is obtain a reference to it (by importing the
+relevant module) and call :meth:`remove_handler <pyrogram.Client.remove_handler>` Client's method with your function
+name preceded by the star ``*`` operator as argument. Example:
+
+- ``main.py``
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+
+        from plugins.handlers import echo
+
+        ...
+
+        app.remove_handler(*echo)
+
+The star ``*`` operator is used to unpack the tuple into positional arguments so that *remove_handler* will receive
+exactly what is needed. The same could have been achieved with:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    handler, group = echo
+    app.remove_handler(handler, group)
+
+Loading
+^^^^^^^
+
+Similarly to the unloading process, in order to load again a previously unloaded plugin you do the same, but this time
+using :meth:`add_handler <pyrogram.Client.add_handler>` instead. Example:
+
+- ``main.py``
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+
+        from plugins.handlers import echo
+
+        ...
+
+        app.add_handler(*echo)
