  Hey Guys,

  I am new to WordPress and am having issues using plugins. I have a Pro account with a .co domain but still don’t have the option to install plugins. Is there something else I’m missing or what?

  Thanks,
  Matt

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

  That capability does not exist on WordPress.COM blogs if what you mean is you want to hand out username accounts and passwords. For that type of functionality you’d need a self-hosted site running on a paid web hosting service.

  There is no FTP access and no blogger installed plugin capability on any free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and there is no upgrade you can purchase here that changes that reality.

  Sorry. Please ignore this phrase above:
  if what you mean is you want to hand out username accounts and passwords.

  The rest is correct.
