Fear not, as you are not alone; many WordPress users have faced similar issues before. However, restoring a theme in WordPress can seem like a daunting task, but fret not; with this bursty guide, we will lead you through the steps to restore your theme in no time.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Before_Restoring_Your_Theme\"><\/span>Before Restoring Your Theme<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Before proceeding with any kind of changes, it is essential to have a backup of your website as an insurance policy that you can fall back to in case of errors during the restoration process. You can use WordPress&#8217;s native backup feature or backup plugins such as UpdraftPlus or BackupBuddy. Regularly backing up your website is crucial to avoid any data loss in case of accidents.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Steps_for_Restoring_a_Theme_in_WordPress\"><\/span>Steps for Restoring a Theme in WordPress<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_1_Diagnose_the_Issue\"><\/span>Step 1: Diagnose the Issue<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The first step towards restoring your theme is to diagnose the cause of the issue. There are various reasons why your theme might break, such as WordPress updates, plugin conflicts, malware, accidental modification, or server problems. By identifying the root cause, you&#8217;ll be able to take the next appropriate steps.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Switch_to_a_Default_Theme\"><\/span>Step 2: Switch to a Default Theme<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If the issue is due to a conflict between the theme and a plugin, you can deactivate all the plugins and switch to a default theme like Twenty Twenty or Twenty-One. This will help you determine whether a plugin is causing the conflict. If the default theme functions correctly, then it is your theme or a plugin causing the issue, which means you need to reactivate your plugins one by one to find which one is responsible.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_3_Reinstall_Your_Theme\"><\/span>Step 3: Reinstall Your Theme<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If the issue is caused by the theme itself, you need to reinstall the theme. Follow these simple steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Visit the WordPress dashboard and go to Appearance > Themes.<\/li>\n<li>Locate the theme you wish to restore and click on it.<\/li>\n<li>Click on the &#8216;delete&#8217; option to remove the broken theme from your WordPress site.<\/li>\n<li>Confirm if you want to delete the theme permanently and click &#8216;OK&#8217; to proceed.<\/li>\n<li>Click on the &#8216;Add New&#8217; button.<\/li>\n<li>Search and install the theme you want to restore.<\/li>\n<li>Click &#8216;Activate&#8217; to make it your active theme.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_4_Refresh_Your_Website\"><\/span>Step 4: Refresh Your Website<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>After reinstalling the theme, refresh your website to check if everything functions correctly. Check your website&#8217;s pages, menus, and widgets to see if everything is working as it should. Verify your website&#8217;s speed and ensure that all the color schemes and fonts are intact.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"In_Conclusion\"><\/span>In Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Restoring a theme in WordPress can seem like a daunting task, but by diagnosing the issue, switching to a default theme if necessary, and reinstalling your theme if needed, you can achieve it straightforwardly.
