  If you think bloggers can install any plugins on wordpress.COM blogs then you are confusing wordpress.com hosted blogs and wordpress.org software installs.

  There is no FTP access https://en.support.wordpress.com/ftp-access/ and no blogger installed plugin capability. There never has been Blogger installed plugins are not permitted here at WordPress.com for various security reasons. No upgrade changes that reality. https://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/

  If you feel you need blogger installed plugins as that’s not possible here at wordpress.COM, this guide will explain how to move your WordPress.com site to another hosting platform: Moving to a Self-Hosted WordPress Site

  Hi, timethief

  Thank you for the detailed answer.

  Actually, when I posted this question, I thought I had searched on the help site because it was the page displayed when I clicked on “Help” on wordpress.com.

  I apologize about it.

  Now I’m working on installing wordpress.org on virtual machine in my computer.

  Now I’m working on installing wordpress.org on virtual machine in my computer.

  Best wishes with that.

  We provide support only for wordpress.COM hosted sites. Our support docs do not apply to
  (1) local installs of wordpress.ORG software on your own server or
  (2) wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting

  Also, note that we do not provide Jetpack support https://jetpack.me/support/ for sites linked to wordpress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  As you are referring to setting up a site that is not hosted here, if you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG account, then click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right-hand corner of the page that opens, https://wordpress.org/support/register.php so you can post to the support forums there.

  WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
