  Hi there,

  At the time you posted this forum thread, your user role on the site was Editor. Editors cannot change site settings, like the theme, but can only make changes to posts and pages.

  Around 15 minutes after you posted here, the site owner changed your user role to Administrator, so now you should be able to make changes to the theme and other site settings.

  You can read more about the different user roles and what each can do here:
