To change the theme in WordPress, you can follow these steps:
-
Log in to your WordPress dashboard. This is typically done by accessing the "/wp-admin" URL of your website (e.g., "yourwebsite.com/wp-admin") and entering your login credentials.
-
Once you're logged in, navigate to the "Appearance" section on the left-hand side of the dashboard menu and click on "Themes."
-
In the Themes section, you'll see a list of installed themes. The currently active theme will be indicated by a blue border around its thumbnail.
-
To change the theme, you have a couple of options. If you want to switch to a new theme that is already installed, simply hover your mouse over the theme you want to activate and click on the "Activate" button that appears.
-
If you want to install a new theme, click on the "Add New" button at the top of the page. This will take you to the theme installation page, where you can browse and search for themes.
-
On the theme installation page, you can browse through the featured themes, popular themes, or use the search bar to find a specific theme. When you find a theme you like, hover over its thumbnail and click on the "Install" button.
-
WordPress will download and install the theme for you. After the installation is complete, you'll see an "Activate" button. Click on it to activate the newly installed theme.
-
Congratulations! You have successfully changed the theme on your WordPress website. You can now customize the new theme by going to "Appearance" > "Customize" or start building your website with the new theme.
It's important to note that changing the theme might affect the appearance and functionality of your website. Some themes are designed with specific features and layouts, so you may need to reconfigure certain settings or adjust content accordingly after switching themes.
