+===== CardDav Plugin =====
+To enable integration with your CardDav addressbook,
+Download latest tarball from [[https://github.com/mstilkerich/rcmcarddav/releases|here]] and decompress it into rouncube //plugins// folder, then enable it by adding **carddav** to the //$config['plugins']// defined above.
+**Note:** it is critical that you LOGOUT from Roundcube before enabling the plugin, and LOGIN again after. This is because this will create the needed table. If you don't, you will get an internal error.
