Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: How do I swap out old content/theme for new?Thank you, Joy. This brings some clarification. I see now in Customization, this is where I can change my theme— now, to adjust everything in my choices in Customization, I would do this after changing theme, right? And in changing theme/customization, does my “old site” (lack of techy words) stay alive until I “publish” the new theme? You’re the first answer I’ve found as to if the plug problems would transfer as well. Will it work if right before I go live with all that is new to then fix plug-ins? I’m thinking plug ins vary by theme (??) Is a “new theme” the same as a “new site”? (I’m confused there—I didn’t think it was / I don’t know techy terms.) Re: installing WordPress on my computer, there must be something easier than WAMP – I already tried that but failed, couldn’t figure out how to access it after download, so I removed it. I don’t need to export if I am changing Pages and content, do I? (I have a mock site in MS Word to copy/paste from). What about a subdomain as Carike suggests—will that work in lieu of WordPress on my computer? The migration link/form you provide – is that for moving stuff from WordPress site on my computer to the new theme? (I’m not clear.) Thanks. I figured I could learn this for lack of money to hire someone.
