how do I add a specific missing theme?
-
Hi, I just installed wordpress on distinto.se
I have tested the theme Fresh & Clean by AJ Clarke on http://distintoextravirgin.wordpress.com/
and it works perfectly.
Both sites are under http://www.distinto.se hosted by one.comWhy can’t I find the theme Fresh & Clean by AJ Clarke when I search for it when I’m logged in as admin for distinto.se?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

No, http://distintoextravirgin.wordpress.com/ is not hosted by one.com. It is hosted by WordPress.com and that is why it is displaying a theme developed exclusively for WordPress.com.
Many of our themes here have been adapted for blogs outside WP.com, but if you can’t find that one it probably means it hasn’t been made available for WP.ORG blogs.

Thank you for the answer. Now I understand the situation.
So, the only way to have the theme on a site hosted by other host than wordpress, is if this theme was made available for WP.ORG.
Who decides that? Is it the theme’s author?
Would it make any difference if I changed host to one of wordpress web hosting partners? -
The theme’s author decides that, because they are quite different and it’s a lot of work for them.
ONLY WP.com has the themes which are exclusive to WP.com. You may want to email the theme designer and ask if there are plans to adapt it to externally hosted blogs.
