  Hello,

  There is an easy way to find out what theme a WordPress site uses. When you go to the site, right click anywhere on the page and select “View Source”. This allows you to see the coding of the page.

  In the links on the page such as this one:
  “http://rodneywalker.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/themes/quasartheme/js/quasar.jquery.min.js?ver=4.1”

  You can see that after wp-content/themes/ it reads “quasartheme”.

  Then you can just google “WordPress Quasar Theme” and find the one you are looking for. In this case, I believe it it this one:
  http://quasar.rockthemes.net/

  Hope I helped!

  http://www.motorclubamerica.net/ is a WordPress.ORG blog. You can’t use WordPress.ORG themes on your WordPress.COM blog. You can only use the ones on the dashboard Themes page.

  Well, if you want to use that theme, you need paid hosting somewhere else, at a cost of about $120 a year and up. If you are okay with giving it up, get your money back and say you didn’t understand you had a WP.com blog and you can’t use it.

  Really, that sucks, I didn’t realize all of that, but how can I just install my theme or open it up so I can start editing my website, because I already paid for the theme. Thanks raincoaster for being so helpful I hope you can continue to answer my questions

  It’s that simple. Then you’re on your own: you install software from WordPress.org, plugins and the theme, and then you do all the support, upgrades, and security.
