  At present there are no chatboxes available I am aware of that can be used on free hosted WordPress.com blogs. There is no FTP access and we cannot install chatboard or forum plugins for security reasons. They are only for WordPress.org installs and can’t be used on free hosted WordPress.com blogs. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  There no message boards, forums or wikis that you can embed into a free hosted WordPress.com blog.
  You have three free forum options: http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2012/04/23/wordpress-com-forum-options/
  You have these free wiki options http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2011/06/13/whats-a-wiki/

  Start by uploading the images into your page or post. There are still changes to be made such as bringing the slideshow button back. In the interim you can still create slideshows using the slideshow shortcode,
  [slideshow]
  provided that the images have already been uploaded through the post or page. http://en.support.wordpress.com/slideshows/#adding-a-slideshow-with-previously-uploaded-images
  Then see here for slideshow order > https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/there-is-no-more-option-to-make-a-slideshow-in-a-post?replies=5#post-1082501

  Hi there!

  If you’re looking for a simple, do-it-yourself alternative to WP’s proprietary slideshow offering, you could do worse than following the method outlined in this post:

  Please let me know if you found the above useful.

  OMG! I hope you are not going to drag every thread on slidehsows out of the searchbox and post the same thing into it because we are not allowed to post blog promotions, and because there are many bloggers waiting for their threads to be answered but you are bumping old threads above theirs. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/view/support-forum-no
