Infomaniak Guides WordPress Users Through Theme Change Issues

Swiss technology company Infomaniak has released a guide in its knowledge base to assist users in resolving WordPress website problems that occur when switching themes. These issues typically manifest as disruptions in site formatting and content if the new theme does not support the shortcodes or page builder tools used by the previous theme.

The guide states that there is no automatic solution for these problems. Users must either revert to their old theme or manually adapt their site's content using the tools provided by the new WordPress theme. Alternatively, users can choose to uninstall and reinstall WordPress, which will erase all content and start the site from scratch.

To mitigate future issues, Infomaniak advises minimizing the use of theme-specific shortcodes. It is also recommended to use universal page builders that are compatible with all WordPress themes. Before committing to a theme change, the company suggests thoroughly testing and evaluating various theme options.

This guide is part of Infomaniak's extensive knowledge base, which offers over a thousand FAQ articles and tutorials related to its various online services. Infomaniak provides a broad range of web hosting and cloud computing solutions, including services optimized for WordPress.
