Installed Technology demo, lost Categories

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 18

These Categories are managed by Blubrry’s PowerPress, but the site was already running a customized version of the News theme. I wanted to change it up and installed Technology’s demo, without the included content but it removed those categories and I have to roll things back since I need them for my podcast.

Any help on how to update without losing those?

Hi,

The process of installing a demo without content will import theme panel settings, custom design for some elements, no dummy content. It will not remove default WordPress categories, that is not supposed to happen.

An exception is if you at some point installed a demo with content, then used the imported demo categories as your own. In this case if you install a new demo the old demo will be removed completely, including the demo categories, posts, pages etc.

I am not familiar with the plugin you mention, could be a problem with the plugin if it’s content is lost. Maybe it got deactivated for some reason when installing the demo. It could also maybe be caused by the theme modifications you mention.
