Changing themes is easy. There are a couple of ways to go about it that I will show you here. This is my first video so please tell me what you think.

Have you been searching the web and stumbled across a website that looks incredible?

There is a good chance that it was built with WordPress. This tool will allow you to find the exact theme the site was built with. Simply pop in the URL and let the Theme Detector do its job.

If you would like more information about choosing a theme you can find it here.

I would appreciate it it if you would take another minute out of your busy day and hit the like button and tell me what I could have done better.

Hi, Tim.
The only thing that you could do to make it better (in my opinion) is to include what I am about to ask you.

So let's say I have a theme that I've been working on and it has a fair amount of content. i.e Pages are built, some posts have been posted, some banners in place, you have a few comments, etc.

How does the content from the previous theme get transported onto the new Theme?

I will probably have a few supplementary questions after this one.

Paul.

P.s. Awesome voice by the way.

That is a great question Paul! And you are correct I should have added that.

Think of your website as a house. Your content is your foundation and your framing.

The theme is outside appearance of your house. Your foundation and framing will not change all of your pages and posts will still be there simply presented in a different manner.

Thanks for your feedback.

Actually, Tim.
I have a supplementary question.

So, when I change the theme, the Pages that have been created will migrate over, but may appear in a different sequence depending on how the new theme is structured. Correct?

And if so, then all I would have to do is make the changes as to how I would like it to appear through the WP editor, right?

Yes paul there may be some changes to make. The menu may be different but all can be adjusted in the WP admin area. if you run across a problem feel free to send me a PM

All things went well, Tim.
I will try to accomplish the balance on my own.

I have difficulty understanding the page that shows up if someone comes to my site. Also, I do not have a 'home page' tag on my navigation headings.

Listen. Never mind, for now. Carry on with what you have to do.

Let me learn my way through. I am in gratitude that you are always there.

Thank you, Tim.

Paul.
