Swapping photos between GeneratePress site templates
3 replies · Started by Justin on June 21, 2022
I currently use the Capital site theme for one of my sites and really love it's ease of use. I'm looking to use it on some of my other sites however I want to change the background photo on the homepage of a person playing chess to the background photo on the Mellow site theme. Can this be done and if so how do I do this?
Thanks
Hi Justin,
Yes, this can be done. Here are the steps to do it:
1. Edit the front page: https://share.getcloudapp.com/6quzxnEd
2. Then, open the list view and select the first container: https://share.getcloudapp.com/2Num0DmJ
3. Lastly, in the Backgrounds settings of the selected Container Block, replace the image URL with this one: https://gpsites.co/mellow/wp-content/uploads/sites/31/2018/11/person-984282_1920-e1542442720578.jpg
Hope this helps! Kindly let us know how it goes.
Thanks for that, I'll give it a try.
When I change from Mellow to Capital, is there anything I need to do aside from backing up the site?
Thanks
Hi Justin,
Well, it’s important to take no as well that any pages/content added when you imported Mellow will be removed.
This means that if you made edits in these content, those edits will be removed along with the removal of the template. So, if you want to save those changes, it would be good to recreate them from scratch.
You can copy and paste content as such: https://share.getcloudapp.com/eDuXwDOz
Hope this clarifies!
