 * Can someone give me a hand? Here is my problem: I am using a WordPress template
   on a friend’s server. She set the blog up for me. I am now trying to upload and
   activate a couple of plug-ins that require an API key. I do not have one for 
   that account.
 * I just registered and got and API key but it does not work for the blog.
 * Is there anyway or anyone who can find my API key for the blog [http://www.puffinsplace.com/blog?](http://www.puffinsplace.com/blog?)

 * Did you get the API key from WordPress.com? If yes, then everything should be
   fine.
 * When copying the API key from WordPress.com to whichever plugin in your blog,
   just make sure you paste correctly as in no space at the end of the string.
    
   e.g. ‘372e8ywfdfh89yewr’ instead of ‘372e8ywfdfh89yewr ‘ See the space after 
   the letter “r”? that what I mean. Make sure there’s no space copied to the field.
