In Nagios Core it all depends on how you installed Nagios.. The plugins directory varies based on how you installed Nagios and the operating system.
if you can find the resources.cfg file the location is usually listed next to $USER1$ in that file.
you will need to place it there and mark it executable.
then you will have to create the host definition, command definition (after testing your plugin from the command line to verify it works with your system.
Finally the service definition for each thing you want to check.
could you please make a simple step by step process guide to get at least one of the service working from the beginning its very confusing really appreciate it and it would help me out alot.
