Keep site structure when moving from theme with custom pages

[ad_1]

I have a website for my clinic which is using the Paeon theme.

It includes special types of pages like “Staff” and “Services” so the slug ends up as …/staff/bob-jones or …/services/massage.

When I try to switch to a new theme which doesn’t have custom pages, ideally I would like to keep the site structure, and to keep access to these custom pages contents.

However, it seems like because the custom page type isn’t in the new theme, neither is any of the other information. Is there a way around this that isn’t just lots of copying and pasting page content, and making lots of redirects from …/staff/bob-jones to …/bob-jones?

Edit –

On further reading I now see the terminology I needed was Parent and Child pages! So that is half of the problem sorted.
