theme change undo
-
I changed my site theme, but I do not like it. Can I revert to the way my site looked before I stupidly messed with it? Thank you.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
Previously the name of any theme was found in the footer but since Staff changed that Volunteers can no longer determine which theme was being used when accessing cached copies in Google. Do you know what the name of the theme you used previously was?

Provided you are logged in as Admin under the same username account that registered the blog go to Dashboard > Appearance > Themes, type in the name of the theme and click the “activate” or the “preview” link.
The theme customizer https://en.support.wordpress.com/customizer/ provides a preview function for exactly that purpose ie. so you can view what a theme will appear like prior to changing one.
If you do not know what the name of the previous theme was you will have to type modlook into the sidebar tags on this thread for a Staff follow-up. How do I get a Moderator/Staff reply for my question? https://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-help-in-the-forums/#how-do-i-get-a-moderatorstaff-reply-for-my-question Also subscribe to this thread so you are notified when they respond and be patient while waiting.

Thank you for your help. I do not remember the original theme name. None of the ones I am searching look like what I had.

I suspect the theme I saw when using Google’s cache is a retired theme. Themes are retired when they don’t support all wordpress.COM features, and the recommendation is to switch to an new theme.

Hi there,
It looks like you found your original theme, San Kloud, shortly after your last reply in this thread.
You might need to set up your customizations again to have it look the way it had before. If you’re missing any widgets, you can restore them from Inactive Widgets here:

Let me know if you still need any help with this.
