    Is there any way to preview a new theme with my existing content? I’m considering switching to a new theme and it’s hard to visualize how my current content will look in the new format. I’m looking at several themes now because I expect to bring in more authors and want new content to appear in a “magazine” or news style format (without having to add their content to the home page manually). Thanks. Garnet92. My current blog is named “Pesky Truth.”

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there!

    You can preview a theme on your site by doing the following:
    – From WordPress.com go to My Sites, then under Personalize click Themes.
    – Find a theme to try and click on it.
    – Click the Try & Customize button at the top right. This will open up your Customize area with the new theme preview in it.
    – Now you can make adjustments and check it out.
    – Click the Save & Activate button if you want to switch themes.
    – Or exit without clicking Save & Activate to leave your current theme on your site.

    Hope that helps! Let me know if you have any questions! :)
