The hardest thing about changing themes is choosing one

I decided it was time to change my theme. When I first started Wealthy Affiliate I picked any theme. I kept building my website according to the bootcamp steps and my site kept getting bigger and bigger. Finally, I realized I did not like the menu that the theme had and nothing could fix it because the type of menu was a theme feature.
The steps I did to change my theme:
- Backup my WordPress site by going to Dashboard, Tools, Export, All Content. Download Export File. The file was downloaded automatically to my computer for me to save in a safe place in case it didn’t work I could re-install it.
- Choose new Theme by going to Dashboard, Appearance, Themes, add new theme, activate theme.
- Check website in dashboard for any little changes that may want to make.
My website came out perfect and I realized the hardest thing about changing themes is choosing one.
