  I have purchased a theme called Full Frame by Graph Paper Press on wordpress.com but I have my own self hosted website with Blue Host and have downloaded wordpress on to that site. How do I retrieve the theme I have purchased on wordpress.com to activate on my on self hosted site?

  Hi there,

  Thanks for getting in touch. Premium themes are not able to be transferred or downloaded from WordPress.com.
  However, you can try asking the theme author if they would be willing to provide a discount coupon or the theme files for you to download and use on your new, self-hosted WordPress.org site.

  To contact the theme authors, please make a post in the premium theme forums:
