  Hi team,

  I’ve just purchased a WordPress.com blog, and have my URL and website hosting registered with Go Daddy.

  In the Dashboard, I can’t see the ‘plugins’ directly.

  Can you please help?

  Thanks,
  Dakota

  For clarification, do you want your site to be hosted at WordPress.com or at Go Daddy?

  For more information about the differences between domain registration, hosting, and mapping, please see our page All About Domains:

  Once you give me some additional clarification, I will be more than happy to continue addressing your issue.

  Thank you!

  I have web hosting and the URL registered with Go Daddy.

  I have registered a blog with wordpress.com

  I’d like to use the word.ORG cms, as it allows me to install my own Themes and Plugins.

  How do I change my wordpress.com blog CMS, to a wordpress.ORG CMS?

  It looks like I have to upload the wordpress.ORG zip file to my FTP?

  Since you do not want to host your site with WordPress.com, I have removed the Domain Mapping Upgrade for thegroundedeagle.com and will issue a refund.

  This guide will step you through the process of moving your site to a WordPress.org instance:

  As we only support sites hosted here at WordPress.com, all issues with the new site – including the importing of the file – must be taken to the WordPress.org support community:

  http://wordpress.org/support/

  If you’d like assistance moving your WordPress.com site to WordPress.org, we have a service called Guided Transfer that does all the work for you. Check it out to see if it’s right for you:

  Let us know if you have any more questions.
