How do I replace a theme
Once you have installed and tested a theme, you might want to change.
Procedure is the same as described in previous pages.
What you need to pay attention to
Setting up a theme is not that complicated once you know what you do.
Before changing an existing theme it is always good to backup your site.
Kindly refer to my training on backups and updates : https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/updating-wordpress-and-preliminary-backup/update-wordpress
Once your new theme is installed and activated you need to customize the theme again.
Check your widgets and menus in the first place in case you set them in your previous theme. If you do not know how to do that kindly refer to my training
For widgets: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/how-to-use-widgets-in-wordpress
For menus: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/how-to-use-menu-in-wordpress
Tip: As long as you are not sure about your new theme, do not delete the old one. Know that resetting your theme to the old one needs customizing too.

Better go for light version first. So you can test it. And then buy if ok. And even then, growing into our site, may need new functions indeed.
Just learn through mistakes and hopefully will get all things right.

You can try to use the filter feature in you theme menu... and see what comes up
For a good choice a theme needs to be Responsive (adaptive to all devices) and light and easy to adapt.
This is a good resume: https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2014/12/what-to-consider-when-choosing-a-wordpress-theme/
Hope it helps
