  Good Morning!
  I am currently working on two different websites for two different organizations. For the first website I had already paid the 30 dollars for the ability to customize my WordPress website. For this website I uploaded a theme I had purchased on a different website yesterday with no problem. Today, on the second account I paid for the “customize” upgrade and was unable to upload the other theme I had purchased. It doesn’t even give me the option to install themes. I was wondering if you might know why, and how I should fix this?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there –

  Themes can’t be uploaded to WordPress.com. That’s a feature of self-hosted blogs through WordPress.org. Your first website was likely not hosted here at WordPress.com. :)

  On WordPress.com we offer over 210 themes, both free themes and premium themes created by leading theme companies. You can view all of our themes at http://theme.wordpress.com/ and filter them by specific criteria under “Find a Theme”.

  With the Custom Design upgrade, you can further customize any of our themes. Let me know if you have further questions about this!
