Can I use VideoPress in my site/blog?
-
I still don’t understand how the different types of sites/blogs allow/don’t allow plugins and upgrades, etc. I absolutely love my site and I have figured out how to add YouTube videos in it, but I, myself, am a videographer and would really love to be able to show some of my videos (Flash format perhaps) on my site/blog without using something like VIMEO or YouTube. Is this possible?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
We only allow embeds and flash from select sources
To show videos on your site, please try one of these:
1) Use one of our video embed shortcodes:

I would like to use VideoPress, but can’t figure out how to get it. I don’t know how to do it from my dashboard and when I go to the VideoPress site, it wants me to create a new blog. Is it not possible to have it with an existing site/blog?
-
Yes it’s possible to purchase the videopress upgrade for an existing blog. Please see here for the videopress upgrade > http://en.support.wordpress.com/videopress/

I feel so foolish – because I can’t figure it out. From the STORE, there seems to be no option for purchasing VideoPress. When I go to the VideoPress website, there seems to be no button to push to make the purchase. The only button on the page requires me to create a new Blog. I’m sorry to be so difficult. I know it must be possible, but I can’t figure it out. In the STORE, I see only MY UPGRADES and no way to get VideoPress

http://shelleywilsonart.wordpress.com/ is a WordPress.com blog and you should be able to buy the videopress upgrade. But you will also need the space upgrade. Are you the ADMIN of the blog, rather than just an editor, etc?

And the Store tab doesn’t look like it does here? http://en.support.wordpress.com/upgrades/

Yes, but the only options for upgrades are ADD A DOMAIN, SPACE UPGRADES, SITE REDIRECT, and GUIDED TRANSFER. I don’t see all the other things shown in the site you refer to.

You purchased a Value Bundle for http://shelleywilsonart.wordpress.com/ on May 15.
Value Bundles include VideoPress, which you can use following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/videopress/
