Installing plugins for Tekkit space server 1.2.9g(Please Help)

[Minecrafter805]

Hello,

I have just started a tekkit space server(version 1.2.9g) with Minecraft version 1.6.4. I set up everything according to a YouTube video and all the port forwarding and things went smoothly after that i have been able to login to the server so all is well with that part. The point of this post is plugins...i have been having a hard time trying to figure out how to install them. It has been out of date tutorials, errors and so fourth....So can someone explain to me how to install plugins and get things going or link me to a video/tutorial? I plan to use world edit, gold shovel claiming, shop plugins, essentials, etc...I have found a way using mcpc plus but it says i have to use java 7 not java 8 and i have tried countless times with any method i have found and either it is so far out of date, doesn't work or something along those lines so please help...
