which plugins are installed on wordpress.com?

  • Unknown's avatar

    After a little experience on wordpress.com, I want to start a separate blog. There are many thousands of plug-ins available, but I would like to know what plugins are currently already installed on wordpress.com to use as a candidate list for my new blog. The installed plugin list does not seem to be available on wordpress.com. I have looked around but have not been able to find it.

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

    Clarification: I want to start up a self-hosted blog away from wordpress.com and I would like to duplicate the installed plug-in list from wordpress.com on my new blog. But I can’t find that.

    Also note that some JetPack solutions are here http://jetpack.me/support/
    Others are in the JetPack support forum at WordPress.org
    http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack
    And, 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 there.

    However, if you can’t find help at either one then you can file a JetPack support ticket here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/?jetpack=needs-service

    OK, I have a multisite blog started and JetPack is installed and network activated. The theme on wordpress.com is Twenty Twelve, and the theme on my self-hosted blog is Twenty Fourteen.

    Now, for example, on my self-hosted blog, I go to Dashboard->Appearance->Widgets and there is a list of 22 widgets. Some of them are identified as (JetPack). Now if I go my site on wordpress.com and go to Dashboard->Appearance->Widgets there is a list of 48 widgets. Many of them look interesting.

    For example, wordpress.com includes a widget for Upcoming Events. I expect there is a plug-in supplying that widget. What other plug-ins are installed on wordpress.com in addition to JetPack? I am just looking for a quick list to get me started.

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

    Know that there are in-house widgets that are not going to be in the WordPress.ORG software install because WordPress.ORG installs are not part of the WordPress.COM blogging community. They are free standing islands. The posts published on them will not automatically appear in the WordPress.com Reader and on our WordPress.COM Topics (categories and Tags) Pages.

    There is no such list. You’re probably better off just deciding what functionality you need and searching for and using that. Nobody should use 48 widgets. Nobody should use more than 15 or so at most.

    The theme on wordpress.com is Twenty Twelve, and the theme on my self-hosted blog is Twenty Fourteen.

    WordPress.com and WordPress.org are completely separate, have different log-ins and run different versions of themes with same names. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

    See here for the built-in WordPress.COM plug-in functionality includes (but is not limited to) the following list > http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/

    Yes I know wordpress.com and wordpress.org are different. I guess I will take raincoaster’s advice and just hunt for stuff as I need it. I have done that a couple of times already.

    So, eventually, I expect I will find a case of “I would like to do [something] in my self-hosted blog and it looks like it is in wordpress.com in the [something-widget] but it does not seem to be in JetPack. Is it buried in JetPack and I missed it or is there a separate plugin that does this [something] function?” I don’t know what that [something] might be, but when I need it I promise to search around before I come back here.

    Jetpack does not exactly replicate the WP.com experience. There is, for instance, no community widget in WP.org simply because there is no community with which to connect.

    You have the fullest list available. There is no point coming back here for help with a WP.org blog.
