    Hi Thomas! Third-party themes are meant to be used on self-hosted WordPress sites. They cannot be loaded on the WordPress.com servers. If you intended on having your site hosted with us at WordPress.com, you can choose from our 280+ free and premium themes.

    If you’re not sure about the differences between hosting here at WordPress.com and self-hosting via WordPress.org, this should help:

    Hi Thomas,

    Edin is a pretty new theme which comes packed with features. There aren’t really any other themes that work quite the same right now. If you’re looking for instructions on how to use it, we have a lot of information right here:

    http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/edin/

    It includes information on how to create pages like you asked.

    You mentioned changing a typo. Is there a typo in the theme, or did you mean the type (like the font)?

    And in regard to what the WordPress.com Premium Bundle comes with, here is a list:

    WordPress.com Premium [Redirects to Plans]

    Thanks for all this help !
    All least, I changed of theme for Mc Kinley.
    I bought an extension to change color, type, and CSS.
    But, when i clic on the CSS button in the personalize menu, it ask me to write something (a code ?) under Content Width. Do you see what is it ?
    Thanks again
    Have a good day

    Hiya,

    The Content Width is an optional override width that you can set for certain content in your theme:

    Set a different content width for videos, full size images, and other shortcodes if necessary.

    You don’t have to actually set anything here as your theme has a default setting which will make your media look great within your theme.
