  I was wondering why the ‘Add theme’ button is not on my WordPress dashboard? I wanted to upload a theme but it wouldn’t let me. What do I have to do to upload my own theme?

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

  Hello there!

  There are several options when it comes to changing the theme on your site:

  Several of the over 100 themes have customization options to change the colors, backgrounds, layouts, and header images. Learn how to activate a new theme here.

  You can purchase the WordPress.com Premium or WordPress.com Business plan for your site, which includes a Custom Design feature that allows you to edit the look and feel of any WordPress.com theme.

  If you have a WordPress.com Business plan, you can also upload your own custom theme to your site by going to My Site → Themes, then use the Upload Theme button. Note that custom theme authors usually have their own support forums and FAQ pages, so sometimes you might have to look for answers on their site.

  You must have the Business Plan to upload a custom theme.
