the luxury theme is not showing up on my blog
-
I have a wordpress.com blog and I purchased the luxury premium them from the wordpress site in July 2016 and it is not showing up, I don’t know what I am doing wrong, it is active but the theme does not come up, when I click on customize, I keep getting taken to the free website set up options. I have been trying to fix this since July and I am really angry and want a refund if I can’t get my blog to look like the theme I purchased. I have gotten so fed up trying to figure this out. This is my blog currently: https://makinglovewithhandel.wordpress.com/ it does not look like the theme I purchases at all.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

What is the .wordpress.com URL of the site you purchased the Luxury theme for?
Exactly which username account registered the underlying .wordpress.com blog and purchased the upgrade for it?
If you are not logged in under the correct username account then clear your browser cache https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-your-browser-cache and cookies https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-wordpress-com-cookies prior to logging into another account
To transfer the site to another username account provided that username account has first been added as an official user of the blog https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#adding-users-to-your-site with Admin status. https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator

Hi –
I’ve activated Luxury for you.
To do this, you would want to go to My Sites > Themes > type “Luxury” in to the search field, click on and activate the theme.
You could also activate it from wordpress.com/themes/luxury/
Let me know if you need any other help with this theme.

I don’t like this theme and I am super frustrated with it, is it too late to get a refund?
-
No, not at all. lizkarkoski will take care of this refund for you when she logs in again.
re: Refunds
WordPress.com provides a 30-day refund on all upgrades except Domain Registrations, Domain Renewals, and Guided Transfers. The refund period for Domain Registrations and Renewals is 48 hours. It takes from 1 – 2 weeks or 7 – 10 business days for the refund to be received. -

You’re welcome and don’t worry please because lizkarkoski will help you as soon as she logs in again.
You can read about premium themes here https://en.support.wordpress.com/premium-themes/ and try another one if you would like to.

Hi –
I’m not able to issue a refund for this upgrade as it was purchased back on June 22nd 2016. It is well outside the 30 day refund window. Instead I have added the credits to your account that you can use towards a different theme or upgrade.
What features are you looking for in the theme? Can you share any examples of sites you’d like to replicate? I’ll be happy to help you find a theme that will fit your idea for the site.

Thanks for getting back to me. What I wanted is the way the picture in the luxury theme has the girl with a hair wreathe to be in the background as the background image so that when people scroll up or down the whole page they see the text and an read the website but that image is always in the background.
When I tried to set it up that way, I just got header image of a flower but even that doesn’t go the whole page. I added a background image I took of a gold scarf but it isn’t what I was going for, I want my website to look the way the luxury theme does with those images with the girl at the top and as it scrolls down there is a man in a tuxedo and when I try to activate the theme it never looks that way on my website so I don’t know how to make my website look like the live demo. I thought when I bought the luxury theme and applied it that it would automatically look like the luxury theme demo

Each theme needs to be customized and setup. Most of them have several different home page, content, and featured options.
When you are looking at themes it is important to focus on the function and style of the theme but not necessarily the content and images – because you are going to customize all of those details to fit your needs.
These are the setup instructions for Luxury: https://wordpress.com/themes/luxury/support/
You have the credits to add this theme back to your account if you’d like me to help you move forward with this option.

Alright. No problem. To get started head to My Sites > Themes > add “luxury” to the search bar. Click on Luxury then activate it.
Or use this link: https://wordpress.com/design/makinglovewithhandel.wordpress.comYou don’t need to pay for it out of pocket, you have credits on your account to cover this.
Then, read over these setup instructions:
https://wordpress.com/themes/luxury/support/There are several different options that you’ll need to decide which ones you want to use. Once you have done that let me know.

I just bought the Rosalie theme, is this how it is supposed to look? https://makinglovewithhandel.wordpress.com/ Does it come with the pictures shown in the demo?
-
Based on the options you are using, yes, that is how it should look. You can see all of the features and setup instructions here: https://wordpress.com/themes/rosalie
This is the site demo for Roasalie: https://rosaliedemo.wordpress.com/
The demo is using different options from what you’ve currently selected.
Each theme needs to be customized with your own images and pages, posts, widgets, etc…
