  Hi,

  Installed JetPack on our hosted WP blog and discovered VideoPress. This might just fit the bill for something we’re trying to do right now. So, I click this link in the setup page…

  VideoPress [Redirects to Plans]

  And at the bottom of the page is a button that says, ‘Get VideoPress’ but when I hit it nothing happens. Tried a couple of different browsers.

  Thoughts?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  That’s strange because I can use that link – no problem.

  Jetpack is a plugin for WordPress.ORG software installs to provide parity with blogs hosted by wordpress.COM. Some JetPack solutions are here http://jetpack.me/support/
  Others are in the JetPack support forum at WordPress.org
  http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack
  However, if you can’t find help at either one then you can file a JetPack support ticket here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/?jetpack=needs-service

  I will type modlook into the sidebar tags on this thread for Staff help.

  I checked that button while logged out, and I saw a message when I hovered over it that said: “You need a WordPress.com site to purchase this upgrade.” That’s the case because you need a space to store the videos on WordPress.com regardless of where the videos will be displayed later (i.e. a Jetpack-connected blog).

  VideoPress is no longer available to purchase as a separate upgrade, so you’ll want to first make sure you are logged in to WordPress.com and then try out one of the plans listed at at https://store.wordpress.com/plans/ as a next step. VideoPress is part of both the Premium and Business plans.
