My questio is why although I purchased in wordpress.com, why can’t I access the dashboard (I want to set my teypfaces that I will be using for the web. I hope you will get back to me. Thanks)

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

  Hi,

  You can access your dashboard by adding /wp-admin to the end of your URL for WordPress.com sites.

  For example: http://jonathanshyakacom.wordpress.com/wp-admin

  You can also learn how to change your fonts here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-fonts/

  Let us know if you have any further questions or issues. :)

  Hi there,

  WordPress.org is the software used to create the sites. Here at WordPress.com, we use that software to power all the sites like yours.

  Regarding your issue, to access your dashboard and manage your site, you can go to https://wordpress.com/ and then select Customize from the left sidebar. This will load the Customizer and then you can go to the Font menu to select the fonts for your site.

  Also, I noticed that you have mapped the domain jonathanshyaka.com to your site, but you haven’t set up the nameservers on your domain’s control panel and therefore it currently isn’t pointing to your WordPress.com site.

  To fix that, log in to your domain provider’s control panel (Squarespace) and follow these instructions:

  If you have any other questions, just let me know and I’ll be happy to help.
