  I signed up for wordpress using wordpress.com, but realized I needed plugin functionality The tab wasn’t appearing in my admin sidebar, so I figured it (the tab) was disabled because of the free wordpress hosting. I migrated to a different webhost and installed wordpress but the plugin tab is still missing. Do I need to upgrade through wordpress (to wordpress.org) or will I never be able to use wordpress plugins?

  Visiting http://www.mywebsite.com/wp-admin/plugins.php produces a blank page.

  Please keep in mind my knowledge of coding is limited, but I can follow instructions well enough.

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

  What is the URL of your new self-hosted site?

  I do think you need to be over at WordPress.org.
