Hosted Custom Design
-
If I have my blog hosted by InMotion and it is not a WORDPRESS hosted site, can I still use and implement the Custom Design Upgrade?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
No. The upgrades can only be purchased for use on free hosted WordPress.com blogs being hosted right here on this multiuser blogging platform and not anywhere else.
-
Is there a way to have custom fonts, colors, backgrounds, etc.,,if the site is hosted elsewhere?
Thank you!
-
We provide support here for free hosted WordPress.com blogs only. Contact your web host please as this is a no-productive exchange.

Sorry Time-Thief…..I am trying to learn……But clearly…. I am not in “the Group”
Obviously, I don’t understand how things work.
Appreciate your bluntness.
-
Bluntly stated anyone who has HTML and CSS editing skills can edit any theme. If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there and receive advice from WordPress.ORG bloggers.

Clearly, I do have an account as indicated by my avatar “member”.
But you have helped me decide.

WordPress.com and WordPress.org have different versions of themes by the same name.
You have this blog hosted here at WordPress.com http://caryhsnjrotc.wordpress.com/ If you purchase a custom design upgrade for it and CSS edit the theme here at WordPress.com, then when you hire a web host and move the content into a WordPress.org install you cannot export the theme or the work you did on it.
WordPress.com and WordPress.org are completely separate.
http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/1. Hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/
2. Set up a WordPress.org install and equip it with a theme and plugins.
http://wordpress.org/themes/
http://wordpress.org/plugins/3. Export your content out of your WordPress.com blog http://en.support.wordpress.com/export/ and import it into the install.
4. Purchase a site redirect upgrade from wordpress.com
http://en.support.wordpress.com/site-redirect/ or if you have domain mapping then update the nameservers http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/domain-management/5. Transfer subscribers and stats. See http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/moving-your-subscribers/
