Switch to Luxury Skin

We will see a case of switching to Luxury Skin from Classic (free) skin.

Navigate to WP Dashboard > Motors Plugin > Motors Skins. It will bring you to the skins page:

❗IMPORTANT

As Motors Skins are ready to use, pre-built functioning themes, changing skins requires cleaning the WordPress database. In this step, you will LOSE the following:

• Existing Contents: pages, custom fields, listings.

However, existing user accounts, passwords, and server files remain UNTOUCHED ✅ .

If you want to keep your existing content, you can export it. Later, after the installation of the Luxury Skin, you can import it again.

Proceed by clicking the Restart Now button and wait patiently. It may take some time.

This step shows the list of required plugins for the skin. As we are switching from another skin, some of the plugins have already been activated. The system automatically downloads and activates not-installed plugins. So, continue by clicking the Install button:

Proceed by clicking Continue:

Next, it's time to do a demo import. There is a list of available demo contents to import. Click on Import to start the process:

There is a child theme for the Motors Starter theme, which you can install or skip according to your needs. The child theme will help you if you want to make more changes to a theme at the code level rather than being limited to the default features.

SUPPORT POLICY ON CHILD THEMES

While child themes are a great way to add custom changes to the main theme, they are generally used to customize core code from the parent theme. So please be aware that customizations of this nature fall outside our scope of support, and we will be unable to assist you with issues that may arise from it
