Template Malfunction
-
When I add one of your free templates, the website reverts to a very basic template, and I can’t get it back to how it was.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
I see you have activated the “Goran” theme, is this the theme you would like to use?
-
I see the Goran theme on your site at https://xplosionyouthchurch.wordpress.com/ and it appears that you have not yet used the set up instructions for that site found at https://wordpress.com/theme/goran
-
Just to add to what has been said, I also see that the active theme on your site is Goran. When you change a theme, nearly everything comes with you. Your posts, pages, media, blogroll and all of your content stay with you. However, much of the site formatting will not carry over.
Following a change in theme, there are a few things you’ll want to check. You can find a video and a few suggestions at the following link:
If you have any other questions after taking a look at that article, please feel free to post here and we can help further.

We have a theme customizer that allows us to preview themes so we can see what they are like prior to switching.
https://en.support.wordpress.com/customizer/Every theme has a detailed theme description page. This one is at https://wordpress.com/theme/shoreditch and that’s where set up instructions for it, and the live demo site link is found.
All support docs are at https://en.support.wordpress.com/ where we have a search box as the most prominent feature on the page.
These support docs are useful for getting started:

I see yoiu switched to the Shoreditch theme https://wordpress.com/theme/shoreditch but have yet to set it up. Do you need help with it?
-
@xplosionyouthchurch, if it would help you, we may be able to reset the site so it’s configured to match your theme.
I think you’re doing a fine job with setup so far, though, thanks to the resources our volunteers have shared here.
Let us know if you need more help.
