  I have several unused premium themes “in storage”, and I’d like to know how I can transfer them to other WordPress blogs of mine. I know it was possible to do that at the “My Upgrades” menu, but it seems this option has vanished. I hope it’s still possible to transfer themes without help of WordPress staff!

  Thanks for any help in advance :)

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

  You can transfer a premium theme to another site on your account by visiting the “My Upgrades” page. Click on the Settings button (with the cog icon) for the theme you want to move, and then click on the “Transfer to another site” link, and follow the directions.

  For me, the “My Upgrades” page is here: https://wordpress.com/my-upgrades/

  Hope it helps.

  Thank you for helping, but as I said, I know I could do this via “My Upgrades” before, but there’s no cog icon to click on anymore. At least not for me.

  I’m surfing with actual versions of Firefox and Chrome on Windows 7, Adblock is off on WordPress, language is set to German (that caused problems before).

  Hi, if you previously experienced problems with Adblock add-on and a non-english language on “My Upgrades” page, then please try to use a browser where Adblock is not installed at all, and use English language for that attempt. If it doesn’t help, then please add a “modlook” tag in this post so that a staff could assist you. Best of luck.

  All my browsers have Adblock installed, switching it completely off on certain sites was always enough to fix problems from that side. And my WP profile refuses to accept the switch to English. Or better, as usual it will probably switch an hour from now, don’t know what causes that delay.

  This is just one of these days where WordPress drives me nuts… *sigh*

  Hi there, it’s actually not adblock. You should see the “transfer to another site” option, and we’re working to fix that.

  Hi Velda, thanks for your help. I checked again and nope, there’s still no option to transfer premium themes :(

  Ah, to clarify, while you should be able to see that option, we’re having trouble with that feature right now. We are working on a fix. I’ll update you here soon!
