  I just creatd a new site and picked a theme (Balsana) and then tried to change it to Blask and then tried Orvis and it seems to be stuck on Balsana. Is there any reason for this? Definitely not the cache as tried two laptops – wondering whether there is a limitation of the free site? Any help very much appreciated

  You can check your current theme top left at “Design” “Themes”. Perhaps the themes do change but as you haven’t created much of your own content on the new site images from an earlier theme may carry over. Most themes don’t look like the demo unless you build your site following the theme instructions.
