  I don’t have an option for plugins. How can I install one when the option is not in my menu?

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

  Hi there,

  Many of the features that people use plugins for are already built in here at WordPress.com so they are often unnecessary here. What plugins did you want to install? We might have a feature or widget that does the same thing.

  If there’s a plugin you need that we don’t have, you might look into a self-hosted WordPress site, as plugins aren’t permitted at WordPress.com for security reasons. You can read more about the differences here:

  I wanted to install a plug in to allow me to capture names and email addresses without having someone subscribe to the blog necessarily.
