That file you're looking for (in the "/res/xml/" subdirectory of your project's directory) is called

config.xml

In there, you have to tell phonegap to load the plugin at compile time like this...

If you don't do that, phonegap will simply not include the plugin at compile time, resulting in the fact that your plugin won't work (since it doesn't exist in the compiled apk).

I haven't used the ClipboardManagerPlugin yet, but according to the docs it should go somewhat like this:

Please note that you should check the PhoneGap version you're using and if the plugin is compatible with it. Just in case you're not aware of it: not all plugins have been updated to work with PhoneGap 3.x yet. To quote the readme at Github (https://build.phonegap.com/docs/plugins-using): "Unless explicitly stated, most of these plugins will not work with Cordova/PhoneGap 3.x.x out of the box. They will need updating before they can be used via the plugin add interface."
