  Help. I downloaded the “Purpose” theme via my wordpress account, and paid £52 into the bargain. But I didn’t want to use it for my WordPress account. I want to use this theme for another domain. I know how to upload a theme to a specific domain but can someone tell me how I can download this “Purpose theme” from my WordPress account so that I can upload it elsewhere?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Premium themes found in the Theme Showcase and in your WordPress.com site’s Dashboard>Appearance>Themes can only be used on WordPress.com. They cannot be transferred elsewhere.

  See this support doc for more information: https://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/premium-themes/

  On that page you will also find info about initiating a refund if needed.

  Glad to help.

  If you want this theme to use on a self-hosted WP install, you might be able to find it and purchase it on the theme author’s site.
