    Hello, I have a website and I'm currently using theme magazine pro on it. But now I am thinking to change it with academy pro. So can it cause problem while changing theme from magazine pro to academy pro? I mean I don't want to loose data. I want to change it without any kind of data loss.

    Typically you would need to lose data. But you should make a backup of the website before you do. Before you switch, move your widgets into the Inactive Widget Area for safekeeping. You can then place them in the new theme where you want them. But you should not lose data like pages, posts, media.

    Love coffee, chocolate and my Bella!
