    I’ve bought a wordpress theme using another website and i’ll trying to add that theme to this account. However, I can’t even find the ‘Add New Theme’ button anywhere. I need to finish this project for my boss and would really love some immediate assistant.

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

    Hi there,

    I think you might be confusing WordPress.com with WordPress.org; they’re incredibly similar, but they have different pros and cons.

    In the name of simplicity, WordPress.com does not allow its users to upload custom themes; they provide many, many different themes (some for free, some for purchase), so you really have to choose one of those if you’re hosting with WordPress.com. Those themes can be customized through CSS, though that takes a little more coding skill.

    If you absolutely want to use that theme, you’ll have to host your website yourself through another website. Click Here to Find a Host

    For a list of all the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org, please click here.

    I hope that helps, even if it wasn’t the answer you were hoping for. Good luck!
