  I need a plugin to embed an iframe in my blog. I see there are plugins available, but i don’t see the plug-ins options on my toolbar. I checked my settings — I have admin privileges. I do not know how to install the plugin. Please let me know what I need to do!

  Thanks,
  Grace

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

  There is no FTP access and no blogger installed plugin capability on free hosted WordPress.com blogs.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/ftp-access/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/

  There is no upgrade you can purchase here that provides FTP access and the ability to install plugins and or any third party themes. If you want FTP access and to install plugins or third party themes then you will have to hire a web host and set up your own WordPress.org install.

  If you are not referring to http://scnmaz.wordpress.com/ then note what follows please. We provide support only for free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and you are posting to the wrong support forum. WordPress.com and WordPress.org have different log-ins and run different versions of themes with same names. If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there and receive advice from WordPress.ORG bloggers.

  There are code restrictions for security reasons on free hosted WordPress.com blogs. http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/ If you want to post iframe codes or JavaScript or install plugins of any kind then you will have to hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set up your own WordPress.org install.
