  Hi,

  I’m Upgrading to Twenty Eleven, can I go back to Twenty Ten if it doesn’t display my pages and customizations properly?

  Will it look exactly the same when I go back?

  Thank you,

  No it will not display the same. They are two different theme. If you revert to Twenty Ten then you will have to do the CSS editing again as it’s theme specific. If you have custom CSS and later change themes, you need to delete whatever CSS you have in the Editor, otherwise, you’ll get undesired results.

  To ‘reset’ a theme, you need to delete the CSS in the Editor, make sure the “add to existing CSS” radio button is checked, then save. Things should go back to normal.

  When you alter a theme’s stylesheet, you only need to put in the Editor the modification/additions to the CSS, not the entire thing. Read this for more info:
