    How to switch themes without loosing current website data, pages, product…etc…

    And also without downloading new theme data on switching, so that my products and data don’t mess up with sample products and data from new theme…

    Thank you.

    Hi hardik119955,

    You can create a dev site, also called a Staging platform where you can test issues, enable/disable features/plugins thus such changes will affect the main site. The below article will help you to create it:

    I also highly recommend you to take a complete backup of your site before proceeding.

    Hi hardik119955,

    It should be the same, when you are going to import other demo, old content will be override so you need to make a backup first.

    Hi hardik119955,

    Thanks for reaching to us.

    First of all, I’m really sorry have taken long time to reply you due to the weekend.

    After created a devsite or make a backup, you can reset main production site by using Reset plugin, for e.g: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-reset/ and re-import new theme.

    Then, on the devsite you can export products, posts to XML file and import again to main production site. You can read more here https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-export-a-wordpress-site/

    Regards,
