  I lost content (blog posts) when I switched theme a year ago. I was wondering where the posts went and if I can get them back?

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

  Are you asking about posts between the beginning of your site and today?

  No, I had about 40 posts before that post of Betsy. When I changed themes of my blog I lost them all for some reason.

  Have you tried changing back to the previous theme?

  It looks like you must have had a different account. The date of a post on WordPress.com is part of its link. From what I see, your profile with this account started on the same day as the first post which is on your blog.

  When you changed themes, did you in fact start another blog with a different email address?
