  I am writing to request that we be able to use the Photoshelter plugin on a wordpress.com account. It is downloaded from Photoshelter and would allow us to integrate our blogs with wordpress.com in a more seamless fashion. Please, throw us a bone! haha.

  Thanks,

  I’m sorry but perhaps you aren’t aware that there is no FTP access to free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and we cannot install individual plugins into our free hosted blogs for security and stability reasons.

  The plugins on the internet are for WordPress.ORG installs which run on different software. http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Thanks, yes, I am aware of this. I’m simply asking with hopes that in the future there will be a way.

  Hello again,
  The urgency stated in the title to this thread made me think your did not know the differences between WordPress.com free hosted blogs and WordPress.org installs. I have flagged this thread so it gets moved to the Ideas Forum for you.

  It is true, I did learn through this process the differences between the .com and the .org as it relates to WordPress. Appreciate your moving it to the appropriate forum…
