    How can I reset a theme back to the original? How do I contact support to do this? I had a choice: Read Steps or Contact Support. I choose Read Steps. It didn’t work. I just can’t find the Contact Support to reset again.

    WP.com: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

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

    Hi there,
    The site link you shared has already been deleted by authors. If you are referring to restore the given link site, the staff member can recover within the time limits for the first 30 days after a site is closed. Are you trying to recover the site as previous?

    Let us know. Please add “modlook” tag on this topic to call staff attention.

    Thanks.

    I am trying to just reset a theme to the original form.

    I deleted the aliensatthedoor971807562.wordpress.com because I had hoped to start fresh.

    I am trying to use Rowling – a magazine theme. My page looks nothing like the preview. How do I get Rowling to look like the preview?

    Hi there,

    It appears that you have deleted this site, as it is no longer online. Do you wish to restore it to active status?

    There is not a way for you to reset this site on your end but we can delete all content and set it to the demo appearance. I see you are using the Rowling theme, which normally looks like you see here: https://wordpress.com/theme/rowling/

    Would you like us to set aliensatthedoor971807562.wordpress.com to use the demo content from the Rowling theme as shown at the above link?

    Thanks for the additional info!

    I deleted aliensatthedoor971807562.wordpress.com hoping that it would cause Rowling to reset. It didn’t. LOL

    The new site:
    aliensatthedoor787344328.wordpress.com

    It doesn’t look like the demo either. If you could make it look like the demo… AWESOME!!! 🙂

    I’ve been trying to do this on my own… nope!

    Please help… and a very big THANKS!

    Thanks for confirming. I’ve set the theme to use the default styling as requested.

    I hope that helps!
