How to get more out of Notepad++

Notepad++ (Notepad Plus Plus) is one of the most popular text/code editor for Windows users. It's really fast and reliable, it has many features built-in but lacks others you might expected it to have. Luckily, there is a vivid plugin development community that has created plugins to help us make Notepad++ even more powerful!
Plugins

Nearly all of the plugins mentioned below are available through the Plugin Manager that comes with Notepad++. To install the plugins simple open Notepad++, go to Plugins > Plugin Manager, check as many plugins as you like and click "Install". Instructions on how to manually install plugins and a full list of available plugins can be found on the official wiki.

NppFTP

A full-featured FTP Client within Notepad++ with the ability to save files directly to your server. You can set up multiple profiles for different FTP servers and either open/save files immediately to the server or download a copy and load it in Notepad++. It also has SFTP/FTP(E)S support.

HTML tag

This plug-in provides two core functions to Notepad++:
HTML and XML tag matching, like the built-in brace matching. For example you may hit Shift+Ctrl+T on an HTML tag and have the whole block until its closing tag selected.
HTML entity encoding/decoding
