How do I upload custom theme?
-
I’m really frustrated by this, I have a folder on my PC and I’ve been trying to install this theme, but I can’t find any “upload” button and I don’t know how to use FTP or cPanel. Thank you.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Of course you don’t have those on your dashboard. You need to have a WordPress.ORG site to have those.
We do not have FTP access to free hosted WordPress.com blogs and we not able to upload third party themes.

http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/adding-new-themes/The only themes you can use on a free hosted WordPress.com blog are those found here > Appearance > Themes and showcased here > http://wordpress.com/themes/ We cannot access and edit any templates underlying our themes. Only Staff can edit as every blog wearing the same theme is using the same template.
Unless you are prepared to pay $500 per month for an Enterprise account or even more for a VIP account, there is no upgrade you can purchase that changes this at WordPress.COM.
To upload themes you need to hire a web host and set up a WordPress.ORG install. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

So I subscribed to 000webhost so that I can upload files on my server ( actually I don’t have any idea of what am I doing) and now it tells me that:
Your domain is not yet pointing to our servers, so services such as FTP, Website Builder or File Manager may not work. You need to update nameservers to ns01.000webhost.com, ns02.000webhost.com for your domain. This warning will be removed once your domain will start resolving to our servers (24-48 hours after the nameserver update).
Can you explain to me how do I do this?

What I said above applies to every blog being free hosted by WordPress.COM, whether or not the blog is on a domain. The fact it’s on a domain changes nothing.

To upload a third party theme you need to hire a web host and set up your own WordPress.org install. -

Yes. http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/domain-management/
If you’ve registered your domain through WordPress.com and now want it to point to a blog or website hosted elsewhere then you can do this by updating the nameservers. http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/domain-management/#update-nameservers

That’s a WordPress.ORG support forum question. If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there and receive advice from WordPress.org bloggers.
