Working With Wix Templates

One important thing to take note of when you are using the Wix template is that you can’t change a new template for a Wix site you have created. Once you have chosen a template and added content to it, you can’t change to another template.

If you want to use a different template, you have to create a new site with the new template. After the new site is created, you need to transfer your plan and domain to the newly created site. If your domain name is registered with 3rd party domain registrars, you have to make sure the DNS record is updated correctly to the new site.
