  Hello,

  I have changed the default theme of my WordPress (‘Manifest’) to another theme by mistake.

  Now I cannot fine ‘Manifest’ on the list of themes.

  How could I change my WordPress back to this theme?

  Best wishes,
  Lorena Ruiz Santos

  That theme is now retired but if you have used it on your site previously you can activate it again via the /wp-admin dashboard (rather than the “My Sites” dashboard). Or add /wp-admin/themes.php?theme=pub/manifest to your site address.

  How could it be changed back from the Dashboard?

  “My Sites” “WP Admin” at bottom left then “Appearance” “Themes” or as I said

  add /wp-admin/themes.php?theme=pub/manifest to your site address.

  Manifest was retired a few years back, so I’d really recommend trying something else.

  https://wordpress.com/theme/redhill is a rather similar theme, you don’t need to use that large featured image in the demo. I recommend trying that instead.
