  I cannot activate my widgets and I don’t have plugins on my dashboard.

  I’ve downloaded the widgets and the wordpress. How does it all work?

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

  There is no FTP access to our free hosted WordPress.com blogs and we bloggers cannot install plugins.

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/

  FTP access and plugins are only for VIP bloggers http://vip.wordpress.com/our-services/ or for those with WordPress.ORG installs.

  Please read this comparison so you are clear on the differences http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  This blog is a free hosted WordPress.com blog http://crushedkonedesigners.wordpress.com/ and it’s already equipped with widgets. See here > Appearance > Widgets

  If you are referring to a WordPress.org install that you have set up paid web hosting for then we do not provide support for it on these WordPress.com support forums. 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.
