Now I’m using Rebalance theme, personal & planning to upgrade to premium. So will try to install these plugins .
Hey Bhavana, it looks like you’re referring to the WordPress.com platform which unfortunately doesn’t support the installation of custom WordPress plugins on Personal and Premium plans. You need to be on their Business plan to be able to upload custom themes and plugins for your site. To install these plugins on your site, you can either upgrade to their business plan or migrate to a self-hosted server (I can help you with that, just shoot me a message and I will get back to you).
Ok…I haven’t thought about business plan & self hosted site as you know my blog is new & kind of personal. Sure I’ll come back to you when I decide on something. Thanks a lot!😊
Haha…well, try to bump up the traffic first and then we’ll think about upgrading the plan or moving your site elsewhere. Always happy to help!
Yes ..you are right😊
