  Hello,

  I hope you’re having a good day.

  I’m trying to make a certain page of my site not look absolutely boring so I wish to add some custom functionality. I want to model the data to look like a timeline, and there are plugins out there that will help me do this, however. Every time I try to add custom functionality i hit a wall.

  Please help!

  Regards,
  Pablo.

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

  You can’t use plugins on WordPress.com

  BTW, you can’t hide the footer credits because is against the ToS:

  May I remove the Admin Bar, credit links such as ‘Blog at WordPress.com’, theme, font, or toolbar links?
  All WordPress.com bloggers are required to maintain the Admin Bar (the dark bar that appears at the top of WordPress.com sites when logged in) as well as credit links in the footer, even our VIP bloggers. Please do not hide or alter text or links for the footer credits or the toolbar. Modifying the style of the footer text (i.e. colors and font size) is fine as long as it’s still readable. Using CSS, you can also add content like a copyright notice to the existing footer. If you would like to do that, you can ask in the CSS Customization forum and Staff or our community volunteers would be happy to help you do that.

  Hey thanks for the reply and for pointing the footer stuff out, it’s showing again.

  Well I want to have a button click that will check a text field’s text against a list of emails. Stuff like that, but so far I don’t know where I can put my JavaScript.
