Add Theme with WebMatrix
-
Right now, I am trying to upload my template with Web Matrix, but I can’t seem to. It seems that Web Matrix adds, IF you create a new blog right then. How do I connect ALREADY MADE BLOG with Web Matrix? Is this a question for Microsoft instead? Thank you!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

There is no FTP access to free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and we cannot install individual plugins or any themes into them The plugins and themes found on the internet are for WordPress.ORG installs which run on different software.

http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/adding-new-themes/On free hosted wordpress.COM blogs we can only use the themes which have been coded to run on this multi-user software and made available to us here. > Appearance > Themes and no others. We cannot edit either themes or templates on free hosted wordpress.COM blogs. > http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/editing-themes/
If you wish to have complete control over a blog, the ability to upload themes and plugins, and to edit themes and templates then your option is to hire a web host and get a free software install from WordPress.ORG and self host it.

How do I connect ALREADY MADE BLOG with Web Matrix?
You can link to it but you cannot embed it into a WordPress.com blog.

I hope that you do understand that if you purchase a theme coded to run on WordPress.org software, you cannot use it on a WordPress.com free hosted blog like the one linked to your username.
