  Hey there, you’ve posted your question in the support forums for sites hosted by WordPress.com, but your above site at rosetintedvintage.com appears to be using the standalone WP software.

  Standalone WP and WordPressdotcom are different entities; more information about the differences can be found here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Help for self-hosted sites using the standalone WP software can be found over at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page and at https://wordpress.org/support/ If you don’t have a username on the ORG forums, you can register one on that page.
