The standard way to install a Django plugin is through pip package manager. You should already have it installed. Then, just run:

pip install "plugin name"

For example:

pip install aldryn-blog

This command will install aldryn-blog and all its dependencies. For this particular plugin, there are many dependencies involved, so if you want to use it in your Django-cms app, you have to include them all in your main settings.py file, under INSTALLED_APPS, like this:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    …

    'aldryn_blog',
    'aldryn_common',
    'django_select2',
    'djangocms_text_ckeditor',
    'easy_thumbnails',
    'filer',
    'taggit',
    # for search
    'aldryn_search',
    'haystack',
    …
)

Please look here for details on this particular plugin.
