  I am new to wordpress so I have made a local site to prepare my new site. I have downloaded Wampserver and have successfully added WordPress. I have purchased a template which is 8m and this is where I have the problem because there is a 2m limit somewhere and I can decide if it is in WordPress or Wamp. I have tried several suggested options but nothing seems to work. I am tearing my hair out and hope you can help me. PLEASE!!

  I don’t have a site linked to this WordPress.com account

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

  Hi there:

  To avoid confusion, there are three different “WordPress” at play here:

  1. The free, open-source WordPress software which powers your website.
  2. WordPress.org which is the open-source project that works on the WordPress software and where you can get the software for free to use on your own hosting provider.
  3. WordPress.com which is a managed hosting provider of the WordPress software and with whom you’re contacting now.

  Since your site is not hosted with us, we’re limited in what we can help with and advise. But I can get you pointed in the right direction to get help.

  The good news is that because you use the open-source variant of the WordPress platform (which functions differently than what we offer here on WordPress.com), help is available at the community forums here:

  https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/

  The folks in the open-source forum are more familiar with these issues and are in the best position to help.

  I hope this points you in the right direction.
