  I purchased a theme from theme forest. It gave me a download link and said I should upload this to wp-content/themes. I have no idea where this option or link is and I’m getting really frustrated. All I want is a page where I can host my videos on different pages (video editing, graphics design etc). I must be doing something wrong because this is supposed to be easy, but it’s pissing me off something fierce. Thanks for any help before I smash my machine

  I’m sorry, but themes can’t be uploaded to WordPress.com. That’s a feature of self-hosted blogs through WordPress.org.

  You may use any of the available themes we have under Appearance > Themes in your dashboard, and you may want to look into purchasing the Custom Design Upgrade to customize one of the themes we offer:

  You can also post suggestions for new themes on our public user forum. Please see here for details:
