  Hi @petramatray, these forums are for the free sites using our managed hosting service, which can be quite different from running your own WordPress installation at another host.

  I can’t see how your theme is configured since it is not hosted here. But with most WordPress themes, you can just change the theme then reconfigure a few items.

  I’d recommend making sure you have a backup first, just in case. Your host can help with that.

  Here’s a link to the correct forums for self-managed sites if you need more WordPress help going forward:
