Edit HTML template:
-
Hello,
How can i edit my website HTML template ?The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi, at WordPress.com, unless you have the WordPress.com Business plan upgrade, you cannot edit or change the HTML, but if you will explain what it is you are wanting to do, it may be that some of the advanced CSS3 will allow us to accomplish what you want.

The answer is that we cannot edit any template on any wordpress.COM hosted site.
The only themes we can use on WordPress.COM hosted sites are here https://wordpress.com/themes/ The way your theme is designed to function and the features it has are found at the detailed description page, for example at https://wordpress.com/theme/dicot and that’s where the live demo site link is also found. We cannot change how any theme functions. We can do some CSS editing to change appearance only if we have the required upgrade.
WordPress.COM is a multi user blogging platform with off the shelf themes and it’s aimed for use by those who do not code. Each theme is uniquely designed. We wordpress.com bloggers do not have access to the template files underlying our themes and we cannot edit them, as our blogs share a common architecture, and as all blogs wearing the same theme use the same underlying template, found on the live demo site for each theme.
Does Customize let me edit HTML?
No. Customize allows you to edit fonts, colors, and CSS only. You can change the appearance of a theme, but not its HTML markup or PHP code. If you require this functionality, please consider moving your blog to a web host that supports theme code modifications. You can read more about why here http://support.wordpress.com/code/, and find a suitable host here http://get.wp.com/hosting/.

@darkydeeds, if you are not hosted here at WordPress.com, then I would suggest chatting with the plugin developer, or posting in the WordPress.org support forums for help on adding the captcha code. You might want to look at several since at least some of them do not require you to add anything to the theme files.
If you do have to add to the theme files, then you would first want to create a Child Theme. If you modify the theme files directly, then when the theme updates, it will overwrite your changes.
There are Child Theme creation plugins that you can use to make things a bit more easy.
