Theme change ruining content

I’m new to WordPress and at the time of me changing the theme, I didn’t realize it could mess up the sites content. After changing to Astra, my sites content is basically all code when I go to edit the pages or when I view them live. Is there a way to get back my content or do I just need to remake it all?

  1. What theme are you switching from? Some have page builders included that don’t transfer easily…

    Switching back should restore the site to how it was.

  2. This will happen if you previous team used shortcodes to build/format its content.

    Depending on how much your previous theme depended on shortcodes it is very likely you will have to stick with it or completely rebuild your website with another theme.
