  I cant find my plugins, every place that I have looked up this question says that it should be there, but I cant find it. So where is it and how do I fix this?

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

  There is nothing that requires “fixing”.

  There is no FTP access and no blogger installed plugin capability on any free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and there is no upgrade you can purchase here that changes that reality.

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/

  If you want FTP access and to install plugins or third party themes into a site then you will have to hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set up your own WordPress.org install. WordPress.org offers free software that you can install on a web server. You can upload and install themes and plugins, run ads, conduct ecommerce and edit the database.

  We provide support only for sites hosted by WordPress.COM and that site is not one of them. We do not provide support for WordPress.ORG software and cannot help you.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there.

  WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page

  Yes, of course, you do because you have to have one to run Jetpack like every other WordPress.ORG blogger.

  We provide support only for sites hosted by WordPress.COM like https://phoebeeveland.wordpress.com/

  You said:

  We do not provide support for that site. That is why I sent you to the WordPress.ORG support forums.
