  I’ve just set up a blog related to football/soccer, using the Redoable Lite theme as it best suits the colours of my time.

  Is there a way of getting a plug in for a Live Blog to go with it? Please let me know as I have been unable to find one at present.

  Thanks

  Si

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

  We can not use plugins on WordPress.com:

  Sorry, “team”, not “time”.

  Yes, of course.

  But we still can not use plugins here. Feel free to send a message to staff about the plugin you would like to use.

  You CAN, however, use Cover It Live if you like. There’s a workaround in the embedding to put it here.

  As an experienced liveblogger, however, I don’t like it at all. To me, you’re far better off just making a post, hitting Publish, then updating it every five minutes or so. It looks so much better, like a real post instead of some weird iframe.
