  Plugins

  Plugins are tools used to extend the functionality of the WordPress platform. However, they are only applicable to privately-hosted blogs and web sites using the WordPress.org software. Plugins are not permitted on WordPress.com for various security reasons.

  Oh, and we can use only the widgets offered under Appearance —> Widgets
  Info about the widgets:

  The only other thing I could suggest is for you to tell us what you want the forbidden widgets and plug-ins to do. In some cases there are work-arounds that work pretty well…
