  I need to update this site and can’t seem to edit anything. It is a wordpress.com business level site using Sela. I have very limited editing options, can’t seem to edit footer widgets or sidebar.

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

  http://collegeparkday.wordpress.com/ is a site on the free plan.
  The theme set-up instructions are here https://wordpress.com/theme/sela

  What is the URL of the site on the Business plan?

  Hi there,

  http://collegeparkday.wordpress.com/ is on our Premium Plan, not Business, and you are added as an Editor on that site, not an Admin. Editors can make changes to all posts and pages on a site, but do not have access to the Customizer to make changes to the theme, widgets, etc. Only admins have that ability.

  If you need to be able to make those types of changes, you’ll need to ask the site owner to change your user role to Admin.
