Theme not found when trying to Customize blog but theme exists in WordPress.org
-
Hi, so I’m trying to use a theme by setmore called SpaSalon (https://wordpress.org/themes/setmore-spasalon/) which I can locate just fine in the wordpress.org site but when I am trying to select a theme when customizing my site it does not show up. How do I do this?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
SpaSalon looks cool but it’s a WordPress.org theme, you can not have it on your WordPress.com blog. You can find a wide selection of WordPress.com themes here: https://wordpress.com/themes/
There is a difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org.
WordPress.com lets you focus on your content while handles all the rest for you. WordPress.org encourages you to be a webmaster, find a host, manage and maintain your own site.
You can find a more detailed explanation of the difference here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
If you do not find a WordPress.com theme you like and want to use SpaSalon, you should switch to a self-hosted WordPress.org site.
Cheers,
Gina -
