  Hi there,

  In WordPress, the favicon is controlled by your Blavatar. You can edit this in the General Settings here:

  Regarding the plugin though, it can only be installed on self-hosted WordPress.org blogs. It is not possible to install plugins on WordPress.com, for security reasons.

  If you are wondering how WordPress.com differs from WordPress.org, this support article explains the distinction:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  WordPress.com has a lot of built-in features that were inspired by popular plugins. What plugin were you planning to install? I’d like to help you find a similar solution with the tools available.
