  I just created an account on WP and began writing articles. But when I wanted to install a plugin for mathematical formulas, it says in the installation guide that I have to put the downloaded folder in the /wp-content/ folder. I don’t remember anything about a local folder on my computer when creating my WP blog. Did I missed some initial steps when creating my blog?

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

  They are talking about where it goes in the file hierarchy. Plug in files go into the plugins folder in the wp-content/themes/ folder.

  You can’t use/install plugins on WordPress.com

  For mathematical formulas, you can use LaTex:

  See my response above:
  That option doesn’t exist on WordPress.com
