    Hello,
    I am tying to “learn by doing” and have a couple questions. The first one I asked above.
    #2 would be that after I save a draft and want to move on I am getting a message that if I leave the page my updates would be lost. What am I doing wrong?
    #3 How can I add a couple of paragraph worth of text under the last image on the page/post? I am still not sure what I am working on, I believe it is a post.

    Will you help please?
    Sincerely,
    Marianne

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hey there!

    How can I change a theme on an existing post under development

    Themes can only be changed site-wide. They cannot be adjusted on single posts. If you’d like to adjust your theme, you can click Appearance → Themes in your site’s Dashboard. Then, once you decide on a theme, you can click to Activate it. You are welcome to change themes as many times as you’d like.

    after I save a draft and want to move on I am getting a message that if I leave the page my updates would be lost. What am I doing wrong?

    It actually sounds as if your changes haven’t been saved entirely. Are you getting a confirmation that your draft has been saved? You should be saving your drafts like this:
    https://cloudup.com/iRnhXbdilYL

    And getting this confirmation at the top, center of your screen:

    How can I add a couple of paragraph worth of text under the last image on the page/post? I am still not sure what I am working on, I believe it is a post.

    You can open the Page/Post up in your editor, find the area where you want to place your cursor in the text editor, and then type your paragraphs.

    For instance, if you opened this Draft Post:

    https://uhlmanngiantumbrellas.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=4&action=edit

    You could scroll down to the bottom of the content box (where your sentence about LED lights resides), and click your cursor in that area to begin.

    Since you’re newer to WordPress.com, I thought you might find this guide helpful:
    learn.wordpress.com

    It’s got a ton of great tips and information about how to set up your site.

    Please let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks much!
