  Hi there!

  We take care of all that for you on WordPress.com so it sounds like you’re talking about a WordPress.org site that’s hosted elsewhere.
  We are not able to assist with those, I’m afraid.

  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.
