    Hi, found a page about Anthologize, a free plugin that seems to fit my needs now, but why in heaven is there no link to a download and why no information if it works on wp.com, or only wp.org

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

    Opps, mistake, I was not on a WP- help-page as I thought.
    I have found the plugin download!

    (I was on this strange page :

    WordPress.com has a lot of built-in features that were inspired by popular plugins. Chances are, the feature you are looking for is already there! You can search our support site via this link:

    Home

    Alternatively, if you tell me a little more about your goals, I can try to help you find the closest solution.

    For any features on WordPress.com, the support page will explain how to set it up.

    WordPress.com does not offer the option to install third-party plugins. If you would like more control over plugins and the option to install your own, a WordPress.org setup would be the best solution for you.

    This page explains the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org in more detail, if you’re interested:

    WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

    You can print your blog as a PDF through a service like BlogBooker:

    http://www.blogbooker.com/

    There are also some companies that will publish your blog as a book, for a fee:

    If I’ve misunderstood the issue, or if you have any other questions, please let me know.

    Its solved but I want to remark that the link given to blogbooker.com leads to a page where exists a big downloadbutton that is not serious.
    Just that type of mis-leading buttons that the internet is overfull with.
    Klickling that button gives quite another result than I want, in this case a speedtest and probably more not wanted junk.
    I didnt click it but many would do that, not reading the small textfont carefully or perhaps not even possible to read it.

    I’m not sure what button you are referring to:

    Screen Shot

    The ad may be inserted by a browser extension. You could deactivate all of your browser extensions or add-ons, and then reactivate them, one-by-one, to rule out this possibility.

    These sites have further explanations and suggestions for eliminating such ads:

    You are right, thats possible and Im anyhow very happy with the functions, I already made my first e-book, no problem at all,
    worked the whole way trough at first attempt.
    (My only thought is why the links to the pictures are written out within the book cause the pictures themselves are working and inserted.
    But I dont know if WP is involved in this :)

    I’m glad to help.

    The services I mentioned are not controlled by WordPress.com, so I’m not sure I would be able to assist you with their product.

    Try reaching out to the provider you chose, and if you have additional questions, let us know and we will be happy to do what we can.
