  I need help setting up my website? Well, here’s the thing. My father gave me the job to make a real-estate formatted website. I told him WordPress is a dashboard I’m familiar working with, as it’s easy and comprehend able. However I’ve come to learn that WordPress.com does not offer personalized plugins or themes. This became an issue as there’s this plugin named “placester” where it’s basically involves itself completely in displaying Real-estate based forms, and features. I’m having issues with getting the theme correctly on the site, for example when I use the Demo theme “Hero” it displays the images as ONE big one and several pictures aligned left to right at the bottom of the big picture, enabling you to keep going further (left or right) to scroll through the pictures. However, when I activated the Theme, the website displayed all the photos in rows on the main website, completely giving me a total fail boat. Anyways, What can I do about the Theme? Are there any plugins that WordPress has available that offer features to help with real-estate processing?

  I have a website URL hosted with WordPress.com, is it possible that (in the only case that the theme and plugin issue is NOT resolvable) the specific hosted URL could be cancelled, making the NAME of the URL available to be hosted on another domain host?

  I appreciate the kind support so far, and I apologize for my misbehavior in the previous support requests.

  Hi there,

  If you want to use the Real-estate plugin you found, you could try a self-hosted installation of WordPress.org. This would allow you to use the dashboard and other WordPress features you are familiar with in a setting that enables plugins.

  You could also move your domain to be used with your WordPress.org site.

  We do not have a real estate widget at present, but I’d be happy to try to help you get your theme working the way you want. The featured image slider that you are describing, is something that can be enabled in the Hero theme. We have an article talking about how to enable the theme’s various features at:

  Does that answer your questions?

  Best!

  Yes, Thank you very much. I will make my Theme working, thank you for offering extra assistance. From my understanding, I will wait 60 days after my registered date at this domain in order to continue the move-domain procedure.

  I’ve read the article and I’m sure I could get by with the information provided.

  I appreciate the great support and quick reply, I apologize for my late one.
