  I have ticked the Show Sharing Buttons box, but they don’t appear when I preview my post. Will they appear when I publish it?

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

  Hi Emily Jane,

  I’m so sorry for the delay. We’ve been incredibly backed up with tickets. We don’t normally take this long to respond!

  I can see that you got everything sorted out with your share buttons for your posts. Your site looks great! Was there anything else which you needed?

  Let me know!

  Hi,

  Thanks for getting back to me (even if it was delayed :)). I did get that sorted thank you. Can you tell me whether I can use plug ins on my site – I can’t seem to figure out how to do it!

  Thanks,
  Emily Jane

  You cannot, I’m afraid. Plugins and third party themes both are things which are allowed only on self-hosted WordPress.org sites. We don’t allow them for security reasons.

  WordPress.com and WordPress.org are very similar, but there are a few important differences. We’ve created a short help article which explains the difference between .com and .org:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org
