Answers: It all depends on the final counterweight of the items, the thickness of your walls, and whether or not you want the "plug" to be everlasting.
Run, do no walk, to your local hardware supply. Go to the "wall anchor" screened-off area with the information on foot.
There are a variety of anchors available. Some for dry wall, plaster on gypsum, plaster on lath, wood, masonry, or even concrete.
My home have 3/8" plaster on top of 3/8" gypsum, so I know that if I want to put something up, I own to look for an anchor that can be secured in a 3/4" wall, whether long-term or temporary.
3/8"
None taken, Doc. The answer is 3/8" to accomodate the toggle bolts I'd recommend using... not knowing what this dude wishes to hang, I'd suggest going as stout as you can achieve away with... 3/8 ought to do it.
With no offense at adjectives; a 3/8 hole is like a sewer manhole cover surrounded by a house.
Obvious to me are the lack of details, which Phillip have added in his own experiences.
You should first know what it is you preference to hang, and its weightiness. Then you should determine whether or not you want to hang into studs or the existing wall bits and pieces.
If the items aren't extremely heavy you might not even bother near drilling. Just purchase the plastic/ threaded/ screw type anchors. Using a hammer to slap the point in where on earth you want the piece to hang, afterwards use a Phillips head screw driver until the anchor is flush to the wall, after add a screw. Pictures/ plaques/ fancy plates/ etc. are hung next to the stress being "SHEAR" consignment, and unlike a shelf, extending from a wall, are less subject to gravity. Certainly you wouldn't droop a Bowling Ball, using the same type anchor as a framed picture of the ancestral.

You don't give much to be answered beside. You should elaborate
Start by choosing your screw. If possible go into the studs than you can count on the reality that nothing is coming down. If you must miss the studs than again start next to your screws but buy them surrounded by a set with the plug as you call it. Each size will be rated by immensity it will support. If more than one screw will hold whatever you are slack keep within mind that you divide the weight among the screw. Most likely your hardware guy surrounded by your local home improvement store will know how to guide you. Good luck!
