Demo Content On Same Theme Site

  • Demo Content On Same Theme Site

    • Hey Guys,

      I have a question to ask i.e.

      I am using a service to deploy wordpress blogs by using Wordpress Rocket Themes.

      For Example:
      I have a blog already setup with Grunge Theme.
      Now i want to install sample or demo content but without new wordpress installation or rocketlauncher.
      Is there any method to import only content database and widgets setting?
      As most of themes give option that when you activate you have both options to install sample data or not.

      So is there any option by using i can import demo content and setting for a specific theme but without installing from rocketlauncher?

      Thanks

    • Hi, the sample data itself is part of the Rocket Launcher installer, there really isn't an easy way to do what you are suggesting. All of the widget settings are theme specific, even though they may have the same position names, they are tied to the individual theme within the Wordpress database, not all themes have the same widgets either, and override settings are also a concern.

      I would guess you are trying to set up one site where you can switch between the themes? It might also be important to note that's probably not a good way to go, our themes aren't necessarily designed to be used like that. Switching between themes often requires removal of widgets from inactive themes to prevent errors and conflicts. This is due more to the way WP handles inactive themes than anything we can do to prevent it.

      RocketLauncher is the only easy way to install demo content. You could try installing it, export the database and import the tables you want with the sample content in your existing installation. You're pretty much on your own with that, we can't provide support with that type of custom development.

    • As I said, the only option you have is to install the RL and export the database and transfer the content between the databases - or manually copy the settings and content. The demo content is part of the installer and cannot be easily separated and moved.
