  Hi,

  I’m new to all of this stuff and when i try to install WordPress onto my system I find it really difficult. I have watched countless videos on YouTube, followed tutorials on the wordpress codex etc.

  The problem I have is i have already started my blog with wordpress through my browser. Now i want to expand and better my blog by using plugins and the like, but I seem to create a new blog when I try to log in on my downloaded wordpress?

  I bought my domain name through wordpress itself, so i dont know what ‘cpanel’ to use or anything.

  Thanks,

  Sam

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

  Hi Sam. If you are referring to the blog linked to your username: you cannot install plugins. Please read this carefully:
