  Hi there,

  I wish to install Encyclopedia Pro to my wordpress blog but I could not find “plugins” (in my wordpress blog) as it is shown at the installation guide below.

  Many thanks in advance.

  Encyclopedia Pro
  DescriptionDownloadInstallation8 Comments
  Download the Lite or Pro Version of the plugin (it should be a .zip file).
  Go to your WordPress Dashboard and login.
  Deactivate all other versions of the plugin. (Especially deactivate the Lite version if you want to install the Pro version.)
  Go to Plugins ->Add New -> Upload.
  Upload the downloaded .zip file of the plugin.
  After the upload was successful activate the plugin.
  Now go to the options page in Settings -> Encyclopedia.
  Scroll to the “Capabilities” box and setup the user rights.
  Enter your account credentials in the “Updates” box to get the updates.

  That is because you cannot install plugins on a WordPress.com blog. They are only for WP.org blogs. For security reasons you cannot install plugins or themes.

  Many thanks. Mine is a .net blog but as I understand from your reply plugins are exclusive for .org blogs.

  That’s not what I mean. Your blog is using wordpress.COM software, which is different from WordPress.ORG software. The actual domain name does not matter.

  Also, I have a “neverlab.org” wp blog, but I cannot find it there, either! Do you have any idea why?

  Allright! Now I am enlightened. Thank you, indeed.

  Could you suggest anything helpful to install/implement/add something to make it look like a dictionary post or page?
  Ignore it if I am going to be the burden of the day for you, thank you anyway :)

  I don’t have any suggestions other than to use one of the newer, configurable themes like Oxygen (which is a learning curve itself).

  Hi, I’ve been searching for a plugin about user login and employee login both to use. Is there a plugin or widget like this ? Normal users should be access to own page, and empolyee users should be access to own page. Thanks.
