Hi
I recently changed theme on December 13th, after that there is drop in traffic, please check and let me know
Hi Rajahanuman,
When you switched your theme, were there any noticeable changes made to the design of the site? For instance, did you change the display of the post meta or the use of any specific schemas?
Any of these could be the reason for the drop in traffic.
Hi
When i installed free version, i showed dates and categories under post title, so i bought paid version and removed dates and categories and i just put author name under title. I didnt show dates in my previous theme too.
To clarify, the overall design you had compared to what you have now is the same?
Yes it's same
Hi
Can you please reply
Hi there,
making any significant changes to a sites code, such as switching themes, may effect how bots crawl your site and the results they return in SERPs.
The very few users who have ever reported this issue generally see a recovery after a period of time once search engines have recrawled their sites.
The main thing to ensure is:
1. there has been no significant change to the sites layout. Especially the navigation menu items.
2. check there are no broken links on your site.
3. ensure that Google / Bing have successfully recrawled your site since switching themes.
4. check there has been no significant and negative impact on CWV metrics by running page speed tests
You may also want to dig into you GSC to look for any data on your traffic, to see if there is noticeable patterns on where traffic has been lost.
But unless you can pinpoint a specific issue on your site, there isn't much more that we can advise.

I think David has already answered the question in the previous reply:
