    I just purchased the Standard Theme for my blog.

    This is probably a silly question, but what is the next step?

    Here’s my blog now: http://www.sundijo.com

    I purchased the domain through wordpress. Does that mean they are my host or do I have to get a separate host?

    Need to know the next step.

    Thanks for your help

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

    You did not purchase that theme for WordPress.COM. It will not run on WordPress.COM software because it’s coded to run on WordPress.ORG software. The only themes we can use at WordPress>COM are found here > Appearance > Themes

    There is no FTP access to free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and we cannot install any themes into them The themes found on the internet are for wordpress.ORG installs http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/adding-new-themes/

    If you wish to hire a web host and set up a WordPress> ORG software install and self-host it then you can use that theme and import your blog content into the install.

    But If you wish to your blog to remain free hosted by WordPress>COM n here then you need to go to wherever you purchased that theme and get a refund.

    Please read this carefully > http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
