Where can we find the plugins which are installed already at wordpress.com
-
I really want to know where I can find the plugins which have been already installed by wordpress.com, so I’ll be able to use the same ones for my own wordpress.org blog…
Would you please help me?
:-)

No. You can’t exactly duplicate WP.com at WP.org, and unless you’re staff, there is NO LIST of plugins here.
-
They don’t have plugins, as such. The definition of a plugin is that it’s an optional extra which you can add or remove. Everything here is core code shared among all users, much of which finds its way into .org anyway.
-
When you move to using a hosted wordpress.org blog you may think that all the widgets that were available for your use on your wordpress.com blog will be available to you for your wordpress.org blog. This is not the case.
-
What do you want in your .org blog that you have here?
If you can list them then we can point you in the right direction.As an example, if you want to use youtube the same way – Viper’s Video Quicktags is similar

you may think that all the widgets that were available for your use on your wordpress.com blog will be available to you for your wordpress.org blog. This is not the case.I cannot see a widget which does not exist in a .org blog.

I’m looking in my widgets in my wordpress.org install and I do not see “Top Posts” or “Top Clicks” nor do I see these widgtes:
vodpod, platial mapkit, box.net, delicious, sonific, meebo, category cloud, tag cloud, flikr, etc. These are widgets that I assume are only for wordpress.com and that’s what I was referring to. Perhaps they are what the OP is looking for but we won’t know that until he or she becomes specific. -
/nod to tt
Not all of them are in the .org install. I would assume that the ones TT lists would have to be downloaded as plugins and installed on a self-hosted blog, or they would have to use the javascript codes from the particular site – whichever the case would be.I have no doubt that you could recreate the .com widgets completely, but it would take a little searching, downloading and coding to do it.

A number of developers have desided not to place their plugins, widgets, etc. into the wp.org plugin database for a number of reasons.
Most of those widgets can be found via a google search.
-
timethief – you said they will not be available for a .org blog
I did not say they were in the default. There are dozens of widgets which as theapparatus has said may not be in the .org database but they are there, they do exist.They are available and if a search does not find them the asking at the .org forums will.
-
I would say there are more plugins and widgets “not” in the Plugin part of wordpress.org than there are in it. It is just worth searching for.

I should have more clear in my communication. I, of course, do know where and how to find plugins .
Q: Where can we find the plugins which are installed already at wordpress.com?
A: You can use this link http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ and you can do Google searches to locate plugins for your wordpress.org blog.

Widgets and plugins and functionality are all different things, though. I’ve got a big, fat Canadian dollar that says he’s actually looking for the “global tag pages” plugin.

I’m not taking the bet because I think the same thing too. ;-)Only those with blogs free hosted by wordpress.com can have their posts featured through the use of categories and tags on the wordpress.com global tag pages. However, we do get bloggers who don’t get this separation betweeen wordpress.com and wordpress.org.
