Not an option on WordPress.com. Neither are plugins. For security reasons, you cannot add themes or plugins to a WordPress.com blog.

Hi chadong016 – could you tell me more about what you’re trying to accomplish? Some themes come with page templates that you can use, but it’s not possible to add new ones. You may be able to accomplish your goal with some custom CSS depending what you’re trying to do.

Could you link to the site you need help with so I can take a look directly? It looks like you’ve deleted the site here: iamirmax.wordpress.com

If you’re not seeing the Page Attributes box you may need to unhide it via your Screen Options panel. While on a page, open the Screen Options panel by clicking the tab at the top right, and then make sure the Page Attributes box is checked off:

http://www.ibeyoutee.com/ is a WordPress.ORG blog and you need to be in their forums for help with that.

Looks like you’re using Twenty Thirteen, and that you’re running WordPress on your own hosting.

Twenty Thirteen is a theme that doesn’t come with any page templates, so that’s why you’re not seeing any available. Not all themes come with page templates.

These forums are for folks hosted here on WordPress.com. Since you need help with your self-hosted site, as raincoaster mentioned, you’ll need to post over in the WordPress.org support forums:

http://wordpress.org/support/
You’ll need a free WordPress.org account to post – if you don’t already have one, you can register here:

https://wordpress.org/support/register.php

Be sure to provide a link to your site when you post so people can help you more easily.
