I have external hosting, how do I gain access to plugins through wordpress.org

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi —

    I’m really confused. I registered a site through wordpress (emilyrosenzweig.com), and then I purchased external hosting through HostGator. I installed WordPress through hostgator (though I’m such a newbie, I’m not clear where that installs it *to*… So it seems to me that given that I’m paying for external hosting, I should now have access to the wordpress.org plugins and such. But I can’t figure out how to do this — or if there’s some way I need to ‘tell’ wordpress that I’m using external hosting? HELP! So confused!

    Thanks
    Emily
