Hi there,
It seems like there may be an issue with your user role. Can you please double-check and confirm what your user role is? In order to access advanced options like themes and appearance, your user role must be set to Administration (or Admin for short). If you’ve been added as an Editor or author user, simply ask the owner to change your user role to admin.
Check out this detailed guide on user roles to learn more: https://wordpress.com/support/user-roles/. It’s a great resource that can help you understand how user roles work and how to make the most of them.
I hope this information helps!
