  Hi there!

  This wouldn’t be possible on WordPress.com so I’m afraid that your site is not hosted here. It is a site using the open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) but hosted elsewhere.

  Because WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two entirely separate entities, we cannot access files or data for sites that are hosted elsewhere, we can only assist with sites that are hosted on our servers. You can read more about the differences between WordPress.org software and WordPress.com here:
  https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/

  You can look for help at the community forums here: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  http://wordpress.org/support/ is also a great resource for sites using the open-source WordPress.org software.
