  While WordPress.com offers a lot of plugin functionality, you cannot add your own plugins or themes; this is only available on the self-hosted version of WordPress.org.

  Plugin functionality offered by WordPress.com:
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/

  If you still need additional features, you may want to check out the self-hosted version of WordPress that allows you to select your own host as well as adding your own plugins and themes.

  WordPress.org:
