  I started trying out new Themes for my website but didn’t like any as much as the one I originally had. Unfortunately, I can’t remember what that Theme was called, or find it in the available options. Is there any way to restore my website to its previous version? Or find out the name of the Theme I was using previously?

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

  Have you looked in the lefthand menu and Jetpack/Activity Log

  We apparently also have a new section in the Default dashboard at Appearance>Themes>My Themes which is supposed to contain themes we’ve used previously on our site.

  @2020testjj Hmm that’s useful to know. My test site shows quite a number. I’d never noticed that on my main site as I haven’t changed the theme there since dinosaurs roamed the earth.

  It’s fairly newish. Sadly, our retired themes don’t appear there.

  @alyssajh Looking at your other site in the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine from the last entry in May 2023, your site was wearing Sketch at that time.
