Purchased Theme Install
-
How to install a purchased theme? I just bought a theme from http://www.elegantthemes.com/ and they have a video instruction on how to install on wordpress. Seemed easy enough although their wordpress dashboard had different content then mine. There was no “install theme” section. From what i can gather from reading the help on wordpress’s site, that’s not possible. There seems to be a disconnect. Why is a site selling themes that can’t be installed? Is it the type of account I have with WP? I’m i stuck using one of the 190 WP themes? Why can’t I use other companies sites?
Thanks,
Josh

Hi there,
Themes purchased through third parties can be installed on a self-hosted WordPress.org site, which requires your own hosting.
WordPress.com is a hosted platform that provides a pre-selected group of themes to its users, most of which are free:
