Hi, I've recently created my first wordpress site and decided to upload a theme which i bought from a third party. I've been unable to do this as whenever i attempt to log into my ftp (in browser typing ftp://) i get an error message "this file server will not allow any additional users to log on. try to connect again later" All i want to do is upload my theme, if anyone could help it'd be much appreciated, cheers
The blog I need help with is ummhow.me.
We don't support FTP access on WordPress.com. I'm sorry, but themes can't be uploaded to WordPress.com. That's a feature of self-hosted blogs through WordPress.org.
You may use any of the available themes we have under Appearance > Themes in your dashboard, and you may want to look into purchasing the Custom Design Upgrade to customize one of the themes we offer.
Ah ok i see, if i purchase the custom design upgrade, i could potentially build a layout from the ground up with my own coding?
Yes, you can use custom CSS code. Follow the steps in this guide to learn more about the Custom Design upgrade.
