  Hi! Does anyone know if it’s possible to make two separate blogs on one WordPress site? For example, I have a page ‘for buyers’ and a page ‘for sellers.’ I’d like to nestle a separate blog under each of these 2 pages on my menu. This way sellers can see blog posts relevant to them, and buyers can see blog posts relevant to them. Is this possible?

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

  Hey brennaunited,

  You don’t need two separate blogs just to show the same type of blog posts in one section.

  You can create two categories “Sellers and Buyers” and use them to group your blog posts.

  Please read this. https://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/

  And then add those categories to your navigation menu. https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/

  Hope that helps.

  It seems to me that any buyers and sellers site would have to be an upgraded Business plan site.

  For equipping a site for e-commerce transactions please read the relevant support doc at https://en.support.wordpress.com/ecommerce/

  Blogger installed plugins and third party or custom themes cannot be used on WordPress.COM hosted sites unless you have a Business Plan. We have 4 different plans: free, personal, premium and business. All hosting is free regardless of which plan you choose. You can view all wordpress.com plan features here https://wordpress.com/pricing/

  All support docs are at https://en.support.wordpress.com/
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/ftp-access/
  Blogger installed plugins
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/
  Uploading Custom Themes or Third Party Themes

  Also note that if you upgrade to a Business plan and install plugins, and then downgrade to a lower plan, the plugins and all features unique to the Business plan will no longer be available for your use.

  If you do not wish to purchase a Business plan see also: moving to self hosted WordPress http://move.wordpress.com

  Note the wordpress.ORG plugins support forum is here https://wordpress.org/plugins/
