How do I change my website template on Wix?

Wix doesn't support switching templates on an existing site with a single click, so you'll need to create a new site with your desired template and transfer your content manually.

The Process for Changing Your Wix Template

Create a New Site with Your Chosen Template

Start by logging into your Wix dashboard and clicking "Create New Site." Browse through Wix's extensive template library and use filters to find options that match your industry or style preferences. Once you've selected a template, click "Edit" to open it in the editor.

Transfer Your Content

Navigate to your original site and copy the content you want to keep—including text, images, videos, contact forms, and other elements. You can copy entire pages or individual components and paste them into your new site. This manual transfer ensures you maintain all the important content from your original website.

Customize and Refine

After transferring your content, customize the new template by adjusting layouts, colors, fonts, and design elements to align with your brand identity. Take time to ensure all content displays properly in the new template structure, as different templates have varying layouts and design frameworks.

Assign Your Premium Plan

Once you've completed customization and are satisfied with the new site, assign your premium plan to the new site. This ensures you maintain all premium features and functionality.

Important Considerations

Before making changes, create a backup or duplicate of your existing website. Test the new template thoroughly before publishing to ensure everything functions correctly. Review your SEO settings during the transition to maintain search engine rankings and ensure all meta descriptions, titles, and keywords are properly configured on the new site.
