  • Access your site via an FTP.

    Root or WP File >> WP-Content >> Themes.

    Transfer the file to the themes folder.

    Log into wordpress. Activate new theme.

    what is the difference in wordpress.com and www.remarpro.com? i have wordpress install in my cpanel of where my site is hosted, cant i have my wordpress stuff within the /wordpress ending of my stuff?

    when I upload themes to the theme folder on my FTP it does not appear on wordpress for me to activate it. I am so frustrated!

    did u upload the whole folder or separate files?

    That’s because WordPress.COM doesn’t let you do that.

    If you are using WordPress.COM then you can’t upload themes. You can only use what they provide you.

    If you were self-hosting your own blog using www.remarpro.com software, then you’d be able to install any theme you like.

    Sounds like you are using WordPress.COM for your blog. See https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ for more info.
