Change Theme, Content, Plugins of site while it is active
-
Hello WordPress Experts,
I am new to WordPress and need to revamp an 8 page website with theme Spacious Pro. The current site runs on WordPress 4.5.3, uses C-Panel, has customized Salient Child themes on all its pages which I want to get rid of entirely.
I would like to:
1-Perform the revamp without putting the current site in maintenance mode.
2-Change theme of all pages to Spacious Pro
3-Change the content on the pages (but will keep same jpegs)
4-Add 2 new pages (site map and active blog page)
5-Add new plugins
6-Not loose WPML from active siteAfter reading the forums I am truly torn on what to do and how to do it because I have never done anything like this.
Can you please provide me with help on how to execute this revamp and the best way to get started?
For example:
NEW THEME DOWNLOAD while old theme is running:
-Do I download the new theme into the current WordPress ? Then create a subdomain? OR -Do I create a subdomain, download a new WordPress to it and then download the theme? How would I download a new WordPress?DATABASE TRANSFER
-Since I pretty much want to change everything (content/layout/headers) do I still need to transfer the previous database? Confused.Your response is Very appreciated
