Redesigning our Club site offline
-
I was hoping to copy our Club’s wordpress.org website sequimpicklers.net to a Full Site Editing template so I could re-design it offline, then share it with our Board before replacing the original site with the new site. However, I’m told that because the free FSE template doesn’t allow plug-ins, this idea won’t work. Any other suggestions? I’d like to try out FSE and our site needs to be redesigned (and the Board won’t pay to hire a web designer). Thanks.

Hey Janice, in order to add plugins and to have more features to a wordpress.com website, you will need to be on the pro plan which is $15 per website.
For wordpress.org, which is self-hosted, you are free to use anything and there are no restrictions. Be sure to make a full backup to your website before making any changes. Please refer to the links below to know more about website backup.

Also, this is the support forum for wordpress.com sites. For the self hosted sites you can get better support at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

I hope this helps and good luck on redesigning your website. There are many resources all over if you are stuck.

Hi there @janicedrickey2013 and @rawalplawit
The above is correct, but with one small exception. The Pro plan is $180 per year per site: https://wordpress.com/pricing/
