  The plugins subtab is supposed to show up between the “presentation” and “user” tabs of the dashboard, but there is nothing there, and i am unable to use plugins. Can somebody please help me?

  You can’t use plugins here at wp.com. Reading the stickies at the top of the forum would probably be a good idea as it’s kind of obvious that you didn’t.

  drmike:

  Sorry to say, it is really not that obvious. Can you point to a documentation source for dummies that will make us more aware of what should be obvious? A good starting point would be to help us distinguish between the various forms of WP.

  This is the forum for wordpress.com hosted blogs and we run on different software than you do. We do not provide support for your software here.

  This is the link to the sticky post entitled “please read me first” that drmike mentions above. It lays out the differences between wordpress.com and wordpress.org https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic.php?id=3700

  Lorelle has also blogged on Choosing WordPress: Which WordPress to Choose http://lorelle.wordpress.com/2007/07/08/choosing-wordpress-which-wordpress-to-choose/

  The correct forum for wordpress.org software inquiries is here http://wordpress.org/support.
