Error when transferring theme
-
So I have been trying to transfer my theme from wordpress.com via WordPress server to my WordPress hosted by my domain site and they are saying the theme is incomplete and it is impossible to upload? Am I doing something wrong when exporting my theme? Am I supposed to do anything in particular to have a complete file?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
You can move all the content from your current site to your new self-hosted WordPress site, but themes and widgets cannot be moved, so you’ll want to set up a new theme on your site.
Themes and widgets are not a part of the XML file which you must have exported from your wordpress.com blog.

Please follow this guide to download the current theme on your wordpress.com blog, you can then upload it to your self-hosted site.

I tried to download the Radcliffe 2 theme and uploaded it on my self-hosted site. It works perfectly.
Could you please try downloading the theme again from this link. Upload your theme again and check.

You have to go to the bottom of the page to find the “Download” button for the theme.
