    Thank you for your help! I suppose that is what happened! One more question and I will be through for the time being. You wrote: If you would like to keep woundedjoy.com at is current hosting then you can navigate to Appearance > Themes in its admin area and download/install any of your choice.

    If I do this, that is install another another theme and play with it to see if I like it, will it change my current blog theme? Or will it set up a new site with a theme I am not ready to commit to?

    @woundedjoy: It will change your current site. If you’d like to set up a second WordPress.org site to experiment with then you could chat with your host’s support team.

    I am working on a theme called Affinity. I filled out all the info for the sidebar and pressed save and publish. When I did it directed me to a page to thank me for using Affiity. When I went back to customizer the sidebar is not showing. It looks like maybe the problem is that the page is showing a zoom feature. If that makes sense. How can I bring down the size to see if the side bar will appear? Also one widget is for a facebook connection. I go to my facebook page and copy the URL from there but the widget tells me it is not a valid URL. Where else can I get m Facebook URL? I really appreciate you helping me sort this out!

    I have everything remedied from the previous email except the facebook issue? Could you help with that?

    I can’t get into my dashboard. neither jackie.com/admin-wp nor jackiepippin.com/wp will work.

    Hi @woundedjoy,

    Is jackiepippinblog.wordpress.com the site you’re working on? I’m glad you got the issue with the zoom fixed.

    If the widget you had added is the Facebook Page Plugin then that widget can only be used with Facebook pages, not personal profiles. Information on what Facebook pages are can be found here.

    I can’t get into my dashboard. neither jackie.com/admin-wp nor jackiepippin.com/wp will work.

    Can you access the link here?

    Thank you for explaining the Facebook issue. I didn’t know that! Also didn’t know I had blog attached to the end of my name in the address. I sure don’t remember doing that! Maybe WP does it automatically. Thanks so much for all your help!

    Hi, Me Again. I am working on my blog woundedjoy.com. this time. I publish on Mondays. This is the first time I have needed headers in the body of the blog. On the edit page where I am typing the draft is there an easy way to do this? Any way to change the size of the font? Many thanks!

    Hi @woundedjoy,

    Your site at woundedjoy.com is not hosted here at WordPress.com. As it’s connected to us via the Jetpack plugin, however, you could edit your post directly from your Dashboard here and use the styles given in the editor’s toolbar. More information on our editor and the options for different styles can be found here:

    Hope that helps out!
