    Hi there,

    When you add a domain to your site, that doesn’t change any of the hosting details or capabilities of your site. Your site is still hosted here at WordPress.com.

    WordPress.com has a lot of built-in features that were inspired by popular plugins, but it isn’t possible to install additional plugins on WordPress.com. What kind of plugin are you trying to install? I can help you see if there’s a way to get that feature here at WordPress.com.

    Additional plugins can only be installed on self-hosted WordPress blogs (using the software from WordPress.org). You can learn more about WordPress.com and WordPress.org if you’re curious about the differences.
