  Hello everyone,

  I was hoping someone could help me with plugins on wordpress.
  I was hoping to include a calender plugin on one of my blogs on wordpress, I have looked around everywhere on the dashboard when editing my blog to find the plugin tab, but it seems to be not available, I was hoping someone would have a way to include this calender plugin in my blog.

  Thanks for the help!!

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

  Hi there,
  Wordpress.com includes the plugin functionality on the sites automatically so you wouldn’t find it on your dashboard. Please see this link for more information and let me know if you figure it out.

  The only calendar option you have is this one http://en.support.wordpress.com/google-calendar/

  If you want FTP access and to install plugins or third party themes into a site then you will have to hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set up your own WordPress.org install. WordPress.org offers free software that you can install on a web server. You can create themes, upload and install themes and plugins, run ads, and edit the database, etc. Learn about the differences here. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  P.S. There’s a calendar widget but it does not function in the way I think you are indicating. It highlights the dates you publish posts on only. http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/calendar-widget/
