Would someone be able to help me, please, with details on how to upload this plugin? My searches are just going round in circles; I keep coming back to my original search! Many thanks.

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

There is no FTP access and no blogger installed plugin capability on any free hosted WordPress.com blogs.

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

See here for a full comparison WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

There is no upgrade you can purchase here that provides FTP access and the ability to install plugins and or any third party themes. If you want FTP access and to install plugins or third party themes into a site then you will have to hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set up your own WordPress.org install.

Many thanks, Timethief, the link to the .com & .org page was really helpful. I upgraded from a free blog back in February, and I thought that in so doing, all the content would belong to me (as opposed to WordPress), which is why I thought I would need copyright cover. I don’t know enough about the techie side of blogging (as I’m sure you can tell!) to host my own blog, so it looks like I’m in the best place.

Out of curiosity, can you tell me who does own my blog content?

Thanks again.

You own your content.
You don’t need an upgrade for that at all.

How do I protect my content?

Sorry if I’m asking daft questions; I’ve managed to get myself really confused.

You cannot prevent theft. You can, however, take action when theft occurs. See here: http://drinkscoaster.com/2013/01/02/whine-journalism-and-how-to-bring-the-splashback

Plugins etc that claim to prevent theft are not telling the truth, or at least not the whole truth.

Many thanks, Raincoaster, that link was really helpful. I thought I needed a copyright legend on each post, to protect the content. it’s good to know that the copyright is automatic.

Many thanks, timethief. Your first link was exactly what I was looking for, I just hadn’t framed my question correctly!
