How to remove theme

  • Unknown's avatar

    I’d like to remove all themes on my blog, so that my site appears as when it never had a theme on it.

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

    There must be one theme on the blog and there cannot be any more than one theme on it at any point in time.

    Switching themes https://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/#switch-themes can be easily done, provided you are logged in as Admin under the same username account that registered the site. Themes are just “skins” on WordPress.COM hosted blogs. You can quickly and easily change themes on any WordPress.COM hosted blog to another one found here http://wordpress.com/themes/ and no data will be lost or negatively affected by the change. The only time you may have to do a lot of work is if you are changing to a dramatically different theme with different features and/or if you have done any CSS editing.

    Provided you are logged in as Admin under the same username account that registered the blog go to Dashboard > Appearance > Themes, Browse themes until you find one you like and click the “activate” or the “preview” link, or type in the name of the theme you want to use when it appears.

    The theme customizer https://en.support.wordpress.com/customizer/ provides a preview function for exactly that purpose ie. so you can view what a theme will appear like prior to changing one.

    As @timethief noted, WordPress.com sites must always have one theme active.

    Twenty Twelve is the name of the first theme you had activated on your site. I can see you switched and experimented with a few different theme since then. Perhaps you were looking to activate that one again?

    If not, please let us know a little more about what you’re trying to achieve and we’ll help from there.
