  Hi,

  I recently bought my wordpress.com website and blog and now I would like to install an Instagram plug-in, but I cannot find the way to do it from the dashboard. The plug-in button is missing, is there something wrong or that I need to do in order to have the button working? How can I switch to wordpress.org?

  Thanks,

  Nicole

  Hi there, we don’t allow plugins on WordPress.com for security reasons. Plugins are a feature only available for self-hosted blogs provided through WordPress.org. You can find out more about here:
  http://support.wordpress.com/plugins/

  For more information on the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org, please see:
  http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  We do have several built-in features that were inspired by many popular plugins, but at the moment we don’t have a way to automatically display Instagram photos. You can read more here on how to embed Instagram photos on your site:

  If I can be of further help, just let me know!
