  Hi there,

  How your site looks on different devices depends on the theme you choose for your site. Right now, your site at theguitaraces.com is using the Profile theme. That theme is designed to respond to the size of the browser window or device that someone is using to view it — you don’t need to do anything more to the layout, because your site’s theme takes care of it for you.

  One way to test out how that will look is to visit your site and resize your browser window to see how the theme’s layout changes at different sizes. You can also use the desktop, tablet, and phone buttons in your site’s Customizer to preview the site at difference screen sizes.

  Please let me know if you have any questions about that. :)

  So could you recommend a theme that works easier across the different devises? I believe the word is optimized? THX

  Hi there,

  Can you describe what you mean by easier? Any responsive theme (like the Profile theme) will respond to the device you’re using, to make it easier to view and read depending on the screen size.

  You can browse all of the responsive WordPress.com themes in our theme showcase:

  Hello, Ive changed my theme to piano black which I am familiar with and seems to format better for my needs.

  I could use help canceling/refunding the Profile theme I purchased and then adding the $99 upgrade to my site.

  Can you do that or if you could point me in the right direction that’d be great?
  THX

  Thanks,
  Mike

  Hi Mike,

  I cancelled and refunded the Profile theme for you, so you’re all set with that. (Please note that it may take up to a week for this refund to appear on your bank statement.)

  You can head to the Plans page to upgrade that site to Premium ($99). If I can do anything more to help with that, please let me know!
