Magento new theme with default data - magento

I have installed Magento CE 1.9.1.0 with sample data. I have copied the default theme of interface rwd and rename it as test theme. Update the package and theme from the admin panel and Save the same. But when refresh the front panel from browser no data will be displayed including images etc. Please help me to know what are the tricks behind the same.
Why data is lost while new theme has been activated?
How to see the sample data?
What are the files am I need to configure more?

you want to Customize RWD theme.in your rwd package you can make a new theme like
design/frontend/rwd/yourtheme and start copying the files which you want to customize in yourtheme.
copy files from design/frontend/rwd/default to design/frontend/rwd/yourtheme and start customization.
and also check this link too

If my understanding is right, you already create your own theme package and set it in the System > Configuration > Design (and correctly followed the magento fallback system) Link
Next, if your working on locally, make sure to set the cache as disabled. Navigate to System > Cache management and select all, refresh and then disabled it.

Modifying Drupal 8 administration theme

I've recently added the faqfield module - but when reviewing this in the content editor the fields are spewing over the container.
I fixed the issue by adjusting the textarea.form-textarea css to min-width:100% in chrome console -- but I am not sure how to apply this fix to the site itself. Is there a way of adding into the db level an override css for the admin theme? Or do I create an overriding change in the theme folder - and if so how?
before quick fix
after quick fix
You can create a new custom admin theme and have it use the contributed admin theme you're using as a base.
You can then just override stuff as needed:
In your my_theme.info.yml in the top section add:
base theme: contrib_admin_theme_name
You then use your own custom theme as the admin theme, but it well use everything from the contributed admin theme, except for the stuff you overwrite.
The best way is to go to Drupal.org and submit it as a patch (you'd be doing it in the Drupal core issue queue since Seven is a core theme). If you don't want to do that then you'd create a subtheme based on the Seven theme, and add your CSS in there. You don't wan to update the theme directly as anytime you update the Drupal core it'll overwrite your changes.

Hi, I am trying magento 2 and struggling to install the new theme. Because Design Theme is not showing under Stores > Configuration > Design.

Then you can select specific store if you have multi store. click edit action and in new window you can find search engine robots setting.
In Magento 2.0.x, you can configure the theme in Stores > Configuration > Design.

how to install a downloaded theme to magento?

I am using magento 1.8. I downloaded a theme,
http://www.templatemela.com/new-style-magento-theme.html
Now I have the theme zip file. I searched over the internet but I couldn’t find any solution. I replaced the folders app, js, skin of magento root folder with the folders from theme folder. After that to activate the theme I open the admn dashboard I got an error,
The page isn't redirecting properly
Which is the correct way to install a new theme to magento?
Any one provide the step by step installation.
After you install the theme, go to System -> Configuration -> Design.
For the Themes section, set everything to modern, since that’s the name of the theme.
The theme will now be applied.
If you’re running the default install, you can make the front page look how the demo store on here does. For that you’ll need to update the CMS blocks, so go to CMS -> Manage Pages. Click on the Home Page.
You’ll be in the General Information section. Under Content, put the following:
{{block type="core/template" template="sample/home.phtml"}}
You can either comment out what’s already there, or just remove it completely.
Then you need to go to Custom Design and set the Layout to 1 column.
That’s it! Hope It will help you.

opencart theme not changing

I installed opencart 1.5.6 on my localhost, and it's not possible for me to change the theme. The admin panel says the new theme is active, but the default theme always appears.
I made the same installation on a remote server, and everything is working well there.
I have no idea what's wrong on my localhost. I'm on a new installation on Ubuntu 12.4 with a default configuration for LAMP. I tried to compare the two phpinfo but there are so many things that are different that gives me no clue.
It was just a problem of rights on the theme folder. Very stupid ...
First, I would check your database to see if the change is registered. Use phpMyAdmin (or whatever included with your LAMP stack) and look at the "oc_setting" (prefix may differ) and see if the config_template is set to the template you've chosen via the admin. This will help identify if the issue is database related.
I have the solution, the ACTUAL solution. (For me anyway)
Extract the theme.
Login to your OpenCart website using FTP. Please read our article if
you need help using FTP.
Upload the catalog and images folders to the root of your OpenCart installation.
Once the upload is finished, log into your OpenCart Dashboard and go
to System > Settings
Choose your website from the list, check the box next to it, and select “Edit”
In the store tab you will now see your new theme option available under 'Template'
Click Save.
It has now been updated.
Many, many tutorials online at the moment incorrectly instruct people to upload their theme directly into the catalog > view > theme location as though it were a WordPress theme or similar. You actually need to put the appropriate resources where they need to be.

How to upload the default checkout procedure in magento

i am trying to fix a magento shop that another developer built.
The shop is multilanguage and i see the checkout progress block at step 3.
you can watch it here: http://www.ac-sw.net/
I need to return back to the original checkout process, i tryed to upload the app/design/frontend/default/default/layout/checkout.xml, and the app/design/frontend/default/default/template/checkout folder without any change.
How can i return back to the default and working checkout procedure?
thanks a lot!
In the Magento admin, you may want to check:
System > Configuration > Design > Themes
In this section clear all the options and make sure Default is set to default This will tell Magento to use the 'default' theme instead of a custom theme.
