    Hello,

    I’m pretty new to wordpress therefore I am looking for help.
    Currently I want to purchase a theme from (http://www.qodethemes.com/themes/), please delete the address if sharing this is not allowed. But, are these themes for wordpress.com or wordpress.org? how do purchasing themes work.
    if this works for wordpress.com do I need to buy a premium plan on wordpress?

    Thanks

    Hi there. :)

    As you’re aware, there are two types of WordPress: WordPress.com and WordPress.org.

    Themes can’t be uploaded to sites hosted on WordPress.com. They can only be uploaded to sites that are hosted elsewhere and running on the free software that’s available at WordPress.org.

    The following guide gives a good overview on the two types of WordPress:

    WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

    Here at WordPress.com, we do offer hundreds of hand-picked themes for you to choose from, and we add more to this list frequently. You can view all of the themes in our repository and filter them by specific criteria here:

    What’s your site going to be about? If you let me know some details and how you’d like your site to look, I’ll be happy to help suggest some themes.
