    Why is there not an “add new” button on my theme installation page?

    Tutuorials show a kind of add new button next to the word themes on the themes page from the admin window. I can see screenshots of this online but there is nothing like that on my page.

    I’ve just spent money on a theme and am about to buy the domain name, and probably one other thing I don’t know I’ll need yet. I would like some support here for those reasons. Thank you.

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

    Hello! WordPress.com only support the themes available from the Theme Showcase. Third party themes, such as the one you purchased are not supported on WordPress.com sites. Those are for use with the open-source software from the WordPress.org project which allows you to have a WordPress powered site on a third-party host.

    You can reference this article to see the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org here: WordPress.com and WordPress.org
