WordPress.org themes for WordPress.com

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello!

    We would like to move our blog from WordPress.org (http://hyperapps.com.au) into WordPress.com and we’d like to know if it’s possible to import the Theme that we use in wordpress.org into wordpress.com.

    I’ve installed a plugin and exported our theme from our WordPress.org page, but I can only upload themes to wordpress.com once I have a paid subscription, which I would like to have but I want to know if I can upload our theme before subscribing for a year (since I couldn’t find any monthly billed plans)

    Can you tell me if they are compatible?
    Thanks!

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

    Currently you can upload external themes to WordPress.com only if you have upgraded to the Business plan. That is currently £250 or $299USD paid annually in advance (not sure what that relates to in AUD).

    Thanks for the reply.

    I figured that out already, but I’m looking to know if once I sign up to the Business Plan, will I be able to use custom WordPress.ORG themes with my wordpress.com account?

    We already made a wordpress.org theme and we’d like to use it for our blog that’s hosted on wordpress.com as well.

    An external theme would by definition be a WordPress (org) theme rather than a WordPress.com theme. But to make certain perhaps you need to state the names of these “custom WordPress.ORG themes” (have you customized them?) you wish to use here with the Business plan and add modlook to the tag box on the right for staff to advise you.
