  I started a website on wordpress.com, using the Lodestar Theme. When I went to put in my booking widget for PeekPro, I learned that I could not put in my usual widget, and could only use a link, which would then take my visitors, away from my site, which I don’t want. PeekPro told me I needed to be using something that allowed a higher level of customization and that I should consider moving to WordPress.org. I did, but when I migrated the content over, i learned that when I migrate the contents, the theme does not come over with it.
  Is there a way that I can download the Lodestar theme, and upload it into WordPress.org, so I can carry on with the same theme?
  Thanks.

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

  You can find all the support information for sites using the WP (org) software at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page and at https://wordpress.org/support/ If you don’t have a username on the ORG forums, you can register one on that page.

  Cheers and best wishes.
