  Hello

  Could you please let us know what error you are having, so we can assist you better.

  Also, custom/third party themes are only supported on WordPress.com sites using the business plan https://wordpress.com/pricing/
  If you have a WordPress.com Business plan you can install a custom Theme:
  Please read the below guide on how to install custom themes.

  Hope it helps.

  Hi there,

  Third party themes can only be installed on the Business Plan on WordPress.com. We don’t currently have any plans to expand this functionality to the Premium Plan
