  Seems like a very simple task… But how do I find/purchase 3rd party widgets????

  A few years back when I first thought of switching my website to WordPress it was easy. Now I can’t find a single widget, other then the free ones.

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

  Do you know that there are different flavors of WordPress?
  Actually I’m surprised that you cannot find plugins for WordPress.ORG: have you tried using Google? There are hundreds (1000’s???) and many are “free!”

  Any rate, back to the different kinds of WordPress:

  Your site, linked to your username is using WordPress.com. The widgets available here include:

  and we have some shortcodes for additional features:

  What are you trying to do on wp.com that you have not been able to accomplish?
