  Hi !

  I have just dived a few days ago in the wonderfull WordPress Galaxy.
  And i need help , because i am a noob in such things..

  I am using the Hemingway Rewritten theme

  So in the header image there is a picture , a title and a tagline under this title. That’s nice.
  What i would like , is to make a lot of different Taglines for that title image (now it says Hi, how are you?) , so it would change with every refresh , into things like : “What’s up ?” / ” Welcome ” / “……..” and so on.

  I have seen that there are plugins on wordpress.org for this but i can’t add any plugins it seems.
  I must say that i found it quite disturbing to see my friends who use wordpress.org , and fix their own hosting and stuff , have way more accessibility to the theme’s CSS , and they could easely add plugins and all , things i can’t.
  Kinda weird to be paying for a more limited service…

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

  Hello!
  To allow complete customization of your WordPress site you need to consider going to a self-hosted WordPress.ORG site. You have a WordPress.COM site which is the free blog with lots of limits placed on it.
  See here for the differences

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  You might consider alternative hosting. WordPress does allow users with a custom domain to move it to another host. Though, if you registered your domain with WordPress you will need to continue to pay WordPress for the domain, unless you also move that.

  WordPress.com is a turnkey blogging solution. If you want to tinker with php and CSS you will need external hosting and software from WordPress.com and a custom domain: figure a minimum of $150 a year for that.

  Thank you for your feedbacks !
  It seems indeed to be stuck because ofwordpress.com hosting it.

  Honestly i find this completely ridiculous.
  I shouldn’t have more limitations while i am paying more as a self hosted site (@raincoaster, ive been looking around on the nets and my friends , ive found much cheaper as the wordpress offer, and reliable hosting)

  I understand that this approach makes it ‘less worries’ for me because of security patches and what not , but i should still have the choice to engage in these features as a customer imo..
