Cannot find Spectrum theme
-
A few days ago I found a theme called “Spectrum.” Really liked it and decided that I would probably use it in developing my new site (cnyvoices.org). Now I can’t find it at all. I’ve searched several ways. Thanks.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

This theme, Spectrum, is now retired. https://theme.wordpress.com/retired/spectrum/ Themes are retired when they no longer support all wordpress.com features and they cannot be used that has not used it previously. Try out a newer theme; start by browsing our WordPress theme directory. https://wordpress.com/themes/
re: changing themes
Themes are just “skins” on WordPress.COM hosted blogs. You can quickly and easily change themes on any WordPress.COM hosted blog to another one found here http://wordpress.com/themes/ and no data will be lost or negatively affected by the change. The only time you may have to do some work is if you are changing to a dramatically different theme and have done any CSS editing.Provided you are logged in as Admin under the same username account that registered the blog go to Dashboard > Appearance > Themes, Browse themes until you find one you like and click the “activate” or the “preview” link, or type in the name of the theme you want to use when it appears.
After you change your theme all you need to do is go here Dashboard > Appearance > Widgets > Inactive Widgets and re-install them where you want them to appear. The widget contents and settings will be the same as they were prior to changing themes.
Note that every theme will have a detailed theme description page with set up instructions and a live demo site page that you can consult. Here’s an example:

Spectrum is an older non-responsive theme – not suitable for viewing on mobile devices – that was retired a while back. It’s available only on sites that were created before its moment of retirement.
If you need any help finding a suitable alternative, just let me know a bit more about what you’re looking for and I’ll be glad to help. You can search our themes here:
