  I bought a theme from Elegant Themes, and I try to upload the theme to WordPress. I follow the instruction to click on Appearances > Themes tab. Next click the “Install Themes” button and then click the “Upload” link.

  However, I didn’t see “Install Themes” button there.　Can you help me with that???

  Themes can’t be uploaded to WordPress.com. That’s a feature of self-hosted blogs through WordPress.org.

  However, we offer over 200 themes, both free themes and premium themes created by leading theme companies. You can view all of our themes at http://theme.wordpress.com/.

  You can also post suggestions for new themes we might add on our public user forum:
