The Filesystem on Heroku isn't persistent - you can't install plugins at runtime when you host on Heroku.

Therefore you need to install your plugins before you deploy - either manually by placing it in web/app/plugins folder or using the composer.json.

Take a look at the wiki: https://github.com/PhilippHeuer/wordpress-heroku/wiki/WordPress---Plugins---Themes
