  I recently migrated my site to the WordPress platform with SiteGround from WordPress.com and I was told by WordPress support prior to migrating that I would be able to easily keep my old theme (Dyad). I am having trouble re-installing the theme now that the site is migrated. Can someone help me with that or point me in the right direction?

  Themes cannot be exported and imported.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Download Dyad for your self-hosted WordPress site.
