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

  Installing a plugin can be done from your dashboard.

  About halfway down the left hand menu, you can see plugins (the icon looks like a plug). Select that one.

  On the plugin page, there is a button that says “add new”. Just search for your plugin there. You can install from there.

  Good luck!

  Just to clarify, the above answer applies to self-hosted WordPress.org sites. Installing plugins is not possible on WordPress.com hosted sites (there are some important differences).

  You can embed PDFs here using Scribd or maybe Google Docs.
