  The free WP version you offer does not appear to be current nor support the new 2022 themes?
  I am looking to set up a booking site for my daughter likely a paid site, but would like to develop using a free version until then?
  In other words, I would expect the free version to be current and wonder why it is not, if it is not?
  TIA.

  Hi there,

  The Twenty Twenty-Two is available and can be used on the free version.

  Hi there,

  All WordPress.com sites have been updated to the latest version of WordPress. As for themes, you can only use the ones that are in our Theme Library (https://wordpress.com/themes/). If you want to install a third-party theme, then you’ll have to upgrade to the Business plan.

  Furthermore, if you plan on developing a site on the Free plan, please note that you won’t be able to install any plugins or third-party themes.
