  Hello! This support forum is for blogs hosted at WordPress.com. Your question is specifically for a self-hosted installation of WordPress. You’ll need to seek help at the WordPress.org forums.

  On WordPress.com you don’t have these tabs/sections:

  muraliprashanth – themes can be uploaded and edited only on self-hosted WordPress sites, when you run the WordPress software on your own hosting. Here at WordPress.com you can choose from among our theme collection and customize themes with custom CSS, but the files can’t be edited directly.
