  Hi there,

  You can go to My Site > Tools > Activity to find recent changes, including recent theme changes. You can then restore the old theme by going to https://wordpress.com/themes/YOUR-THEME and clicking ‘activate this design’.

  After you restore the old theme, if you have trouble finding the original home page, or the Customiser looks different:
  You will find the old page(s) in the Drafts by going to My Site > Site > Pages > Drafts. You’ll need to republish these by selecting them, and clicking ‘Publish’ in the top right-hand corner. https://wordpress.com/pages/drafts
  https://wordpress.com/support/editors/post-and-page-screen/
  You can also delete the new theme’s page templates by going to My Site > Site > Pages, finding the template, clicking the three dots and selecting Bin. https://wordpress.com/pages
  https://wordpress.com/support/trash/
  You may need to do some editing in the Customiser, especially of menus and any CSS. You can do this by going to My Site > Design > Customise. https://wordpress.com/customize/
  https://wordpress.com/support/customizer/
  https://wordpress.com/support/customizer/#menus
  https://wordpress.com/support/customizer/#additional-css

  You might also wish to read https://wordpress.com/support/themes/#my-content-and-switching-themes for further information.

  I hope this helps! This thread has been tagged for staff attention, so if you need further help they’ll be able to guide you :)

  Hi there,

  It looks like the Hever theme was the initial theme you had activated before the recent change. You can go here to reactivate the theme:
