Can someone help please? I f'd up with WP... - GoFuckYourself.com

I tried messing with a theme and I fucked it all up. The site gets less than 200 hits a month and its a review blog with a PR1. I fucked it up pretty bad and I'm thinking of scrapping the theme and starting over.

Will changing a theme effect PR?

Also, any clean themes recommended for a Review Blog? I don't want it to have too much on it. I like to keep things as clean as possible. Obviously my method isn't working with only 100+ hits a month. Any suggestions?

Just re-download the theme and install that will get you back to where you were?

Thanks Medium. I appreciate it. I made changes to the original before this and now working on the newer version without saving it even so I'm kinda stuck. I guess if it's only getting less than 200 hits a month I probably should have changed it before now anyway.

Reuploading the theme files should do it. If not, you can also try to restore a backup of the database if you have it or export the posts and reinstall the theme. There are so many themes, it really comes down to personal preference, unless you have specific requirements. Good luck.

It completely depends on the theme that you were using and the one that you change it to. I'm not really sure about PR specifically, but SERPs can definitely be affected.

Just at least be sure that the URL structure is the same.

I don't think URL structure has anything to do with the theme. Permalinks are not affected by theme changes.

I'm not really sure, just sayin'

But themes do have SEO options, so check those if you change themes. You might also want to take this opportunity to overhaul the blog to try to get more than 200 views per month.
