  I just upgraded and still have that wordpress in the address. Is this going to go away? Also, I can’t find the Appearance tab anymore – I am using Karuna. And, can I use Karuna with a shopping cart or ability to purchase somehow?
  THank you in advance,
  Nancy

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

  Hi there,

  Your WordPress.com address is still set as the primary domain on your site. To change that, go to My Site ->Domains and click the Change Primary button at the top.

  The Appearance option only exists on the WP-Admin dashboard:

  http://flowingwatershaman.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  No theme on WordPress.com will give you the ability to add a shopping cart. WordPress.com does not currently offer any ecommerce functionality, and no upgrade or theme changes that.

  Hi,

  I think for you to be able to make use of the e-commerce functionality on the theme, that would require you making use of the woocommerce plugin for your blog or website.

  WooCommerce is an ecommerce plugin for self-hosted site using the WordPress.org software. It cannot be used on WordPress.com sites.

  So to use that you’d need to set up a self-hosted site instead with a hosting provider like Pressable or Bluehost.
