  Hello,

  I’m trying to integrate a custom sign-up form that I created using mailchimp into my blog but I’m running into problems. I’m confused on how to download plugins. Please advise.

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

  Hi Candace,

  It is not possible to install plugins on WordPress.com, for security reasons. Plugins can only be installed on self-hosted WordPress.org blogs.

  If you are wondering how WordPress.com differs from WordPress.org, this support article explains the distinction:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  While you can’t have a custom sign-up form, you can add a Follow Blog widget to your site. Take a look at the link to see if it’ll work for you!

  Cheers!
