Themes
-
I currently have the Motif theme. Can I switch to a different one to see if I like it better?Is there a fee/penalty for switching? If I don’t, can I switch back to Motif?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

There is no fee for free themes and you can change and change back as many times as you want.
re: switching themes
Every theme has a detailed theme description page with set-up instructions and a live demo site. Here’s an example of the detailed theme description page here https://wordpress.com/themes/twentysixteen/ and a live demo site here https:/twentysixteendemo.wordpress.com/Switching themes can be easily done, provided you are logged in as Admin under the same username account that registered the site. Themes are just “skins” on WordPress.COM hosted blogs. You can quickly and easily change themes on any WordPress.COM hosted blog to another one found here http://wordpress.com/themes/ and no data will be lost or negatively affected by the change. The only time you may have to do a lot of work is if you are changing to a dramatically different theme with different features and/or if you have done any CSS editing.
Provided you are logged in as Admin under the same username account that registered the blog go to Dashboard > Appearance > Themes, Browse themes until you find one you like and click the “activate” or the “preview” link, or type in the name of the theme you want to use when it appears.
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.

I’ve changed from Penscratch to Revelar, but my tagline has disappeared. Can you tell me how to restore it?
