I’d like to get a “live preview” of many of the demos running on my own data (posts, pages).
The option to install the demo asks me if I want to bring it’s own data or not, but even if I choose to install the demo without importing example data, it will erase my data and overwrite it (even with a blank state).
What’s the correct way of “installing” a demo layout without losing my data?
Hi,
Depends on what you mean by data. Installing/uninstalling a demo will have no effect on your own created posts or pages for example.
Installing a demo with content will provide the demo homepage, without content there will be no homepage included. You can copy the homepage form the demo files in that case, and configure it

Also the process will import the demo custom stylesheet and theme panel settings belonging to the demo. The theme panel settings are essential if you want the website to look like the demo, colors, font settings etc will be imported.
Your theme panel settings will be replaced if you decide to install a demo.
Thanks
Simion, thanks, that’s exactly what I needed.
