  I was working on a page and then decided to change the theme to something else… yet after changing the theme all that I did with all formats and images were deleted for some unknown reason. I tried this article (https://en.support.wordpress.com/editors/page-post-revisions/) and it did not do me any good. I even tried changing back the theme to the previous one but still, all the data was lost… how can I restore the data that I had 1-3 days ago? (it is NOT a blog or a post)

  Hi @tarekhemaya, some of the newer themes are essentially just a different page layout. In cases like that, your front page content would be replaced, but the old content will still exist here:

  https://wordpress.com/pages/drafts — can you confirm whether you see the old version there?

  You can copy as needed, or publish the page and make it the front page through the editor.
