  I accidently installed a theme or something and it ruined my entire blog, I have the free version. Can anyone help me roll back to a previous version? Im really freaking out.

  Hi there, what’s the address of the site you need help with?

  In case your site is using the open source WP software, have you tried contacting your web hosting provider for assistance? If they say this is a WordPress problem, you’ll want to head over to https://wordpress.org/support/ where you’ll find documentation and users who have more experience with the software you are using. If you don’t have a username on the ORG forums you can register one on the top of that page.

  Just to clarify, this support forum assists users of the WPcom platform. For more information on the differences: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Same has happened to me :( I added a new site, so changed the theme – but it accidentally changed my main site.

  Please could you let me know how to roll it back?

  Hi there, were you able to resolve this issue? I see your above WPcom site is using the Exford theme. If you want to return to using your previous free theme, take a look at your MY SITES Activity dashboard and it will say which theme you switched from. Then in the Themes tab, you should be able to reactivate that theme unless it has since been retired.

  If you don’t see the retired theme in the MY SITES Themes tab, if it was a free theme you might be able to reactivate it from WP Admin>Appearance>Themes

  Let us know how that goes.
