    Hello @missmia7482,

    Looks like you’re in the wrong forum. Your site is using the open source WordPress.org software and you need to seek help at these forums:

    The current forums you are on are for WordPress.com hosted sites only. If you want to know more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org you can read this document:
