Newbie – Building my website and something isn’t looking right

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello! I want to say thanks in advance for your help! I signed up through Bluehost and have WP through there when in reality I should have gone through WordPress. Anyways! I got all that fixed and now I just have the WP site builder in my account. I am wanting to create my blog using blocks and building it all that way. But for some reason when I pick a theme that you can use blocks with and I go to the ‘Edit’ button on my ‘Pages’ page, it gives me a blank page to edit without any theme. I just typed in the name of my blog where it said ‘Title’ so that I could press ‘Preview’ on the new page I was creating. When taking me to the preview in a new tab, it shows the text I typed in with the theme I installed as well. But it is not showing the them when I am editing in the edit screen so that I can see as I go and so that I can see where things are being placed. I went to ‘Preferences’ in the page edit screen and it says that ‘Use Theme Styles’ is turned on and that says under it that it makes the editor look like the theme. But I am just getting a blank page and cannot figure out why that is if the Use Theme Styles is turned on. Any help is very much appreciated!
    Thanks!
