  Hello

  I would like to ask, if I buy a WordPress theme, (in my case Curator), can I add any WordPress plugins? Or I will have problems depending on the pluguin? I would like to install a community plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/community), and I want to make sure I am not going to have any problem.

  Thanks so much

  Alba

  Hello,
  Plugins can’t be installed on a WordPress.com site. To use a community plugin, you would need a self-hosted installation of WordPress where you register a domain, buy hosting, and set up your site using the free software from WordPress.org: https://wordpress.org/
