  Why is it that, when I use the colors menu, instead of getting:
  Base color scheme
  Background color
  Page background color
  Link Color
  Main text color
  Secondary text Color
  Primary colour
  Default
  Custom
  Apply a custom colour for buttons, links, featured images, etc.

  Apply a filter to featured images using the primary colour
  I get instead:
  o default
  custom
  Apply a filter to featured images using the primary color
  Regards

  Hi there,

  What is the URL of the site you are referring to?

  I do not see any sites connected to the account you are contacting us from. Is it a WordPress.com hosted site?

  Thank you for your query. My WordPress hosted site is http://climateblogbylorn.com I have not posted as yet as I am in the process of setting it up and have had problems with my Color page not corresponding to the choices offered in Dr Andy Williams’s step-by-step instructions in WordPress for Beginners 2019. (I have a Premium contract).,

  Howdy –

  http://climateblogbylorn.com/ is actually hosted by Hostinger not WordPress.com. That means your site is set up on the open source WordPress installation. Which is something different all together from what we do at WordPress.com.

  To get help, you just have to use the forum at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  Dear Howdy,

  Thanks for this. Am I to understand that there are two versions of WordPress – the one offered through a hoster like Hostinger, or the one where WordPress acts as a host? Is there a difference between the two in the range of facilities offered to the blogger?
  Regards and With Thanks, Lorn

  Yes there is a very big difference between setting up a WordPress.com site (here) and the potentially much more complex task of developing/maintaining a site elsewhere using the WordPress.org software.

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  May I take up more of your time, patience and expertise by asking what is the function of theme support in WordPress? I am told that this may be the solution to the missing items I am finding when attempting to use Dr Andy Williams’s manual in relationship to the Dashboard I have. Grateful thanks, Lorn

  Hi there,

  Since your site is using the open source WordPress.org software it’s best to ask those questions at these forums:
