Changin theme problemn

  • Im trying to switch theme. Previewing the theme before activating, everything looks just fine but when i activate it things start to break. Menu is not working, sidebar is fully black and getting “lines” in my site which i added to my site with custom css in customizer in old theme. How i can delete all traces from old theme or what i need to do?

    Make sure you disable any caching before switching the theme. You can re-enable it afterwards.

    The preview is, imho, useless. Once you have the new theme activated, you may have to move around widgets and set new locations for your existing menus.

    Well removed all the widgets and changed the theme. Still that black bar appearing and cant remove it and all kind of colors from my old theme. Dont know where to ask help. Themes support forum?

    That would be a good place to start.

    sidebar is fully black and getting “lines” in my site which i added to my site with custom css in customizer in old theme.

    Does that Custom CSS belong to previous theme or WP core’s option? If it’s the latter, maybe that CSS is the one messing up the new theme.
