These are technical support forums and we cannot post anything here except support questions and answers to them. If we post anything else it’s treated as spam.
If you have a wordpress.com technical support issue you need help with then clearly state exactly what it is. Also be sure to post the URL of the site you are referring to.

The only themes we can use on WordPress.com hosted blogs are licensed and adapted to run on our multi user software the themes are found here http://wordpress.com/themes/ and in your dashboard at > Appearance > Themes
Every theme has a detailed theme description page like this one is at https://wordpress.com/themes/twentysixteen/ That’s where set up instructions for it are found. The live demo site is at https://twentysixteendemo.wordpress.com/
All support docs are at https://en.support.wordpress.com/
You must be logged in under the exact same username that registered the site to be able to access the site. The Admin login link to the dashboard for every blog hosted by wordpress.COM is:
http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/
Replace NAME_OF_BLOG in that URL with the actual name of your blog.
