I have a production website and I noticed the new very modern and cool theme examples in the newer Enfold theme. I tried to load one of the demo sites to play with it in “draft” mode, but Enfold warned me that I would overwrite my site.
My question is how can I check how my site would look with the more modern demo theme configurations without messing up my current in-production website?
I was really interested in how my current site would look with this version of Enfold:
http://kriesi.at/themes/enfold-restaurant-one-page/#topThe long method I can think of is to use a parked domain, install Enfold and WordPress over on that domain, then import my current site’s data into the parked domain and then apply the Enfold demo themes to see what they look like, This seems like a lot of work. Is there a better way?

You can simply go to Enfold theme options and change your options to give your website a similar ( if not the same ) look. If you would like to see couple of pages, we can provide you shortcodes of those pages

Generally speaking I can’t see settings in the Enfold menu that would bring my (currently boring) website anywhere near the example demo link I provided.
Another consideration is that my current website (www.therapyhelpcenter.com) is very text-heavy, due to the type of work I do, and I am guessing it will need to be reworked to fit this new design I like. I think the demo’s design is fresh, new and engaging and this is not how I would describe my site.
Last, I am apprehensive about doing anything that cannot be undone immediately because I am in production mode at the moment.
How is that people do parallel moves between the theme’s looks when their website is in production?
October 22, 2014 at 5:10 pm #339571Another thought. Perhaps you can summarize the items to change in the Enfold config inside WordPress that will make my site look like the demo I referenced in my first message? I could take a look at what needs to be changed and then prepare the site for the visual change before I move it over, or turn the demo look on live for a short time to test it.

You can turn on debugging mode so you can see/work with shortcodes – http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/enable-advanced-layout-builder-debug/
and please see this page to move your installation to another domain – http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/move-from-a-local-installation-to-a-live-server/
You are going to need to add a fullscreen slider to the top of your page and choose to display transparent header under Layout section.
You can find the shortcodes of elements used on that page here – http://pastebin.com/g0hEs7AHCheers!
