I have a blog hosted in wordpress. I bought a domain from GoDaddy and forwared it to my wordpress blog. Now, if I want to install any plugin to my site, I always get instructions like - download this and place it to that directory. How do I find that directory when I am using Wordpress's free bloggin service.
I'm afraid you cannot upload plugins/themes to WordPress.com, even if you have a mapped domain.
http://support.wordpress.com/plugins/
Host wordpress at GoDaddy - you already use them for domain registration - and then you can use plugins, as well as do much more, as wordpress.com is limited in many respects. Export your existing content from .com to your own wordpress install, too.
If you're on wordpress.com, you can't use the plugins unfortunately. If you're on wordpress self-hosted, upload them by going to Plugins > Add New in the sidebar of the back-end of your site.

I have a WordPress website. I have 27 posts/blogs there. but after some days it reduces itself to 20 and after sometime 15. I have to recover it using backup everytime it happens, it's really annoying.
There are a lot of user registered on my website but their role is set as "subscriber".
Only I have the admin access and I also have 2 Step Verification enabled using WordFence plugin. So If someone tries to login then I need to approve that IP.
Or is it a database problem?
It could be caused by some plugin or your theme code. Check your plugins if there is something related to post expiration/pruning and also the functions.php file in your theme directory if there is some cron/schedule/remove filter. It certainly is not caused by the database itself.

I just created a new Wordpress project. I have managed to create a local domain to it, created db (without any data) and configurated my config.php (created from config.sample.php). Then I opened it in the browser to start the installation, but it is obviously broken - CSS is not working.
Please help, what can be wrong?
There is also another project where CSS files obviously don't work. I download that project from gitlab. That one was not from scretch. Both don't work correctly.
This problem usually occurs when you have not entered the correct website address during WordPress installation.
This guide will help you with:

If the site is in an active domain, send its address so that the problem can be checked.

I am planning to create a blog based on WordPress platform. I read some books and blogs about how to use this framework. I found that it's a good practice to install WordPress local and create the blog offline (add a Theme, content, etc. ) and later to order the domain, hosting and make it public.
Update: The following error was received while surfing the WordPress page:
“Error establishing a database connection”.
I tried to resolve the issue but on the wp-admin I get a different error :
“One or more database tables are unavailable. The database may need to
be repaired”
I'm developing wordpress based websites in past 5 years and usually what I do is, develop entire site on local and move it to the cloud. If you do it public, create a robot file so that search engine can't find you, until you are ready to launch, or good to show others.

I have developed lot of websites in asp.net, but its the first time I am trying a wordpress site. My client want to develop a site for their shop so that they can update pictures and text themselves in the future. The site should be with good graphic and they want it in wordpress. But I confused that should I go for wordpress.org or wordpress.com for making this website. Do the wordpress.org work like a CMS, so anyone can update the site without the technical knowledge.
WordPress.org provides the open source code for WordPress that you can run on your own website, with whatever plugins you choose. WordPress.com provides (free) WordPress hosting, but you are limited as to what plugins and configurations you can make to your site.
There are a bunch of details on the WordPress site under the page "WordPress.com and WordPress.org."
go to wordpress.org
it provide you wordpress
http://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page for documentation
You should use wordpress.org. In wordpress.org you can download Wordpress and Install it in your server.
Wordpress.com is a hosting company that host Wordpress websites.
Take a look at this article:
http://diythemes.com/thesis/rtfm/differences-wordpress-com-org/
wordpress.org use your own server. it is a cms/blog software and has many plugins to customize it. you can create static sites for as home and the main menu. everything else like blog pages are dynamically inserted but you dont have to use it. you can customize your page theme and change css and also add js. your customer could change textes add and remove pictures. there will be a plugin where you can define a set of images which can be modified by a service your customer can use so it would fit i would say

I installed wordpress in my wamp local server and created a site using a theme. Up to this time I was using the dashboard link that is available in one of the page in the theme itself to log in to wordpress and use the dashboard. Now as I updated the page and took of all the wordpress related links I am unable to again go to the dashboard. How can this be done?
Go to the following url http:// localhost/you-site-path/wp-admin
You can also do http:// localhost/wp-login.php or you can setup your own custom page with form that submits your username and password, then process the login on your own page.
Open yoursite.com/wp-admin and login to view your dashboard.
It should be localhost/your-wp-folder/wp-admin/
You are looking for,
http://localhost/wp-admin/
Simply add "wp-admin" after Wordpress site url and you are at the dashboard.
