  I tried to create a new page and when I selected the background it changed the background on my blog instead! I never saved the changes but it saved anyway and now I can’t find my theme again. I’m seriously in tears. Please help!

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

  You can’t change the background on a single page. The background applies to the whole blog.

  I never saved the changes but it saved anyway and now I can’t find my theme again.

  Changing a background has no effect on the theme. Did you change the theme?

  no effect on the theme

  I mean no effect on which theme you are using.

  You previously used the retired iTheme2 theme. If that is the theme you want you should be able to get it back by going to Appearance > Themes, searching for iTheme2, and clicking on the “Activate” button when it appears.

  Or click on this link, https://2centoutlet.wordpress.com/wp-admin/themes.php?search=itheme2, then click on the “Activate” button.
