  Hi there, Rachel!

  Third party plugins cannot be installed on WordPress.com sites. This is a security risk as we cannot vet all outside code and it puts our users, their sites, and our servers at risk.

  However, given your request, I think we can help!

  This is how you can set up your Instagram widget:

  This is how to setup a Pinterest widget in your sidebar:

  You can also setup social media “Follow” buttons like this:

  If you have other needs, please let me know! Cheers.

  Thank you very much for answering. I saw those options but what i would like to put is only the icons somewhere so the people can click on it and start following me on pinterest, instagram Facebook or twitter. I dont want necessarily to see the pictures shown on the blog. Also i didn’t quite understand what you said about plugging, is it all the plugging i can’t download ? i remember a friend dowloaded few plugging on wordpress for her blog.

  Hey there!

  Here is information about how to set up those follow buttons:

  As I mentioned, third party plugins cannot be installed on WordPress.com sites.

  Plugins are only usable on self-hosted WordPress.org sites.

  I know the difference between .com and .org can get confusing, so here’s a breakdown of the benefits of each:

  I think those social media buttons should work well for you. Let me know! Thanks.

  That’s a spam email. It’s best to ignore it.
