Embed of Joomla code
-
Joomla have given me the code to embed my magazine onto WordPress, which doesn’t work. There is a notice that I need a plugin…but WordPress say that I can’t add a plugin? What on earth do I do?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You paste the code here, between CODE tags, so we can see it and suggest how to adapt it. It almost certainly won’t work, though, because it’s probably an iframe, which will of course be stripped out as insecure.

If you want to install plugins of any kind then you will have to hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set up your own WordPress.org install. Apparently you have done that.
There is no FTP access and no plugin capability on free hosted WordPress.com blogs.

http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/There is no upgrade you can purchase here that provides FTP access and the ability to install plugins and or any third party themes.
See here for a full comparison WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org
http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/WordPress.com and WordPress.ORG have different logins. If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there and receive advice from WordPress.ORG bloggers.

This is the code that Joomla provide under the title of code for WordPress.

That is also Flash code. You might be able to adapt it using the Gigya shortcode, but since it basically just displays an image, why not just put it in as an image? http://www.joomag.com/Frontend/flash/gui/themes/default_new/thumbnail.png

I’ve done that and it looks fine.
Thank you both for your help. It has been much appreciated.
