Q: How Do I Get Elfsight to work with Wordpress (and my Appsumo plan) with the new dashboard?

Haven't used the software in a while, so maybe I missed something. I purchased the Tier 1 package on Appsumo. When I tried to add a popup today, I got an error "You need the Business or Commerce plan on WordPress to install the widget,". My plan has been marked as Basic. I purchased Elfsight so that I could create/use widgets with WordPress. Please get back to me with a resolution, work around. Thanks.

This sounds like a limitation of the commercially hosted version of Wordpress on Wordpress.com, which limits adding 3rd-party plug-ins & widgets to Business & Commerce plans. There is no such limitation for the open source version of Wordpress from wordpress.org, which you can self-host or is available through many other hosting providers.
