How about an Etsy Shop Plugin for wordpress.com
-
Its a popular plugin for WordPress.org why not open it up for .com users as well?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Currently a workaround that some of us are using is to simply take a screenshot of our Etsy shop or favorites, crop it and add the image to an image widget with the link going to your shop or favorites page. You can learn more about using the Image widget here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/image-widget/

There is no FTP access and no blogger installed plugin capability on any free hosted WordPress.COM blogs for security reasons, and there is no upgrade you can purchase here that changes that reality.

http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/#html-tagsIf you want FTP access and to install plugins or third party themes into a site then you will have to hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set up your own WordPress.org install. WordPress.org offers free software that you can install on a web server. You can upload and install themes and plugins, run ads, conduct ecommerce and edit the database.
WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

Thanks for the feedback. I was already thinking about using image links to get to the Etsy site. You could even use images of the actual items for sale and link directly to that item listing, which would allow the page to keep its consistent look with the theme. As an adjunct art professor I’m using this experience of updating my own website to show students what you can get for $18 a year from wordpress.com and avoiding upgrades for now.
