Right now, go ahead and create these two directories in the same folder where your config.php is:
my-templates
my-plugins
 
Then, put your plugins into the my-plugins directory.  I think these bare directories should be included in the download package.   Maybe there’s a good reason they’re not, but it just seems silly to me.

		Edit config-sample.php with your details, then save it as config.php.  That’s the directory where you need to create the two directories I mentioned, my-plugins and my-templates.
