    Hi there,

    When you change a theme, nearly everything comes with you. Your posts, pages, media, blogroll and all of your content stay with you.

    When you change to a new theme, there are a few things you’ll want to check afterward, including:
    – custom menus
    – widget locations

    There’s a great video tutorial on switching themes here:

    Hope this helps :)
