  Hi all,

  I am using a subdomain off of wordpress. There are some plugins I would like to use for the blog (testing some out) – how would I go about installing those. Is there a way on my dashboard to navigate to a plugin page to install via there ?

  Any help is appreciated, I just cant find how to do it.

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

  Hello,

  Plugin installation is not available on sites hosted on WordPress.com. You’ll need to get a self-hosted WordPress installation rolling in order to do that.

  You can read more about the differences between WordPress.com and self-hosted WordPress here: http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
