Help with customizing
-
I was trying to customize my site and activated a theme accidentally. Now, when I visit the page, it has all of the info that the original theme has and I have no idea how to fix it. I just want a normal blog with options on the left and the blog posts on the right. With a header of a logo. Is there a way to delete all of the customizations so far and start again??
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
Some of our newer themes automatically set your site up like the theme demo when you activate them, but you can change this at any time.
To set the blog as the front page on your site, go to My Site ->Design ->Customize ->Homepage Settings. You can change that option there:
And any default pages that the theme created on your site can be deleted at My Site ->Site ->Pages.
I just want a normal blog with options on the left and the blog posts on the right.
What “options” are you referring to here? A “normal blog” is a site that lists the latest blog posts on the front page, nothing more. There are no “options” that appear on a site. If you’re referring to a sidebar with widgets, that would depend on your theme – some themes include a sidebar, some don’t, but any theme can be used for a regular blog, regardless of whether or not it includes a sidebar.
The Twenty Thirteen theme you have at the moment was designed to not have a sidebar, though it does have an optional sidebar you can enable by adding widgets to it. You can do this at My Site ->Design ->Customize ->Widgets ->Secondary widget area
You can find more information on how your theme works here:
