  As I was trying to set up a new blog I accidently applied a theme to my existing blog debramieth.wordpress.com . How can I get my old theme back for this blog?

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

  Just go to the themes menu from Appereance in your dasboard and you can bring your old theme back, or you can choose a new one.

  You can also choose one from this link: http://theme.wordpress.com/

  If you don’ t remember your first theme’ s name, I think it was probably Twenty Twelve.

  When you choose the theme again, you will need to place the widgets again.

  Thanks for that. I have another problem with my new blog. When I posted the first post I found my name and details from the other blog on the new one when I wanted the new one to be anonymous. I don’t want it to be connected to me at all. Can I hide these details or must I delete the new blog and start a whole new one under a different name. If so, If I hit the delete button, will it only delete the new blog and not my old one?

  You can choose which blog to delete from the related page. But you may not need to delete it. Can you explain where does it shows you name?

  If it is in the writer section under a post, your Gravatar profile, you can try to cancel the writer name option. Or you can change your Gravatar profile to make it don’ t show your name, this is a little weird but I do the same.

  It’s in three places on the post. One under the name of the post with the date of posting: Posted on April 3, 2013 by debramieth. And the other is my Gravatar profile I think (don’t know much about them), at the bottom of the post above the comments box. This has ABOUT DEBRAMIETH with a sentence from my ABOUT page. Then it’s got: View all posts by debramieth>> right under that on the right. I don’t really want to change my Gravatar so it doesn’t show my name as it appears when I make a comment on other blogs.
