I want to make a copy of my site using a different theme.

How do I transfer photos from the media library of the old site to the new one?

Kindly advise.

Hey Stella,

You may find the following video helpful: This you can do if you have any more posts and images that you want transferred from one website to another.

BUT... it won't work if you've manually copied and pasted the post (or page) contents already.

In that case you would need to manually download your images from one site and then add them to your new site.

Hope you find this works for you.

Hi Stella,

I'd create a sitesupport ticket asking them to create a siterubix backup of your site because you are testing out a new theme.

They should be able to create a clone of your site (including the images) where you can test out the different theme.

Jay

Thanks Jay!

You will need to download the photos to your desktop and then reupload them to your new site

Hmm, isn't there a plugin I could use?

I don't know ow to download the photos from the media library...

you have to do each one ....
or use a plugin to grab them all....

HI Team,

I have created a site that needs a main menu created.

My question is this; do my posts have to be live before creating a main menu?

I have been co

Yes, I would always recommend that you have your content published before you add it to the menu. Don't create placeholder menu items, if the content is not live then don't add it to the menu. I hope this helps clarify things for you Stella. :)

Thanks for helping me out Kyle...

I know I can count on you to give substantial detailed advice when I need it!

you can click on show all when you click on posts in the menu and you will see all includuing unpublished ones...
i tend to use categories as menu items and these can be created and placed as menu items without posts....
then add posts to the categories and clicking on the menu items will go to the category archive page with all the posts tagged with that category listed...
or you can use the custom menu item and use # as the link to go nowhere and then add a title...
you can make as many menus as you like to try out and only show the one or two if you are using one for the footer...
good luck

Thanks Phil!
