Install plugins in Eclipse PDE

I am using a plugin for the Eclipse PDE 4.6 as an IDE for a language. To start the IDE, I run Eclipse and go to Run / Run Configurations, select Eclipse Application, and use the default settings. In Eclipse, I can install the marketplace and other plugins just fine, but none of the plugins show up in the new window. I used this link to install marketplace: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/staging/ However, there is still no marketplace under the Help menu. How do I install marketplace and other plugins in the IDE?

In the 'Run > Run Configurations' select your application and then go to the 'Plug-ins' tab.

In 'Launch with' select 'all workspace and enabled target plug-ins'.

Also check 'Add new workspace plug-ins in the launch configuration automatically'

You will also need to have 'Running Platform' selected in the Preferences in 'Plug-in Development > Target Platform'.
