    Hey, Im trying to install theme and to apply demo site (no matter what theme it is OceanWP/Hestia).

    When I install the theme I see the front page as a default blog page but when I click the menu buttons it jumps to new site with new design (more look like my theme)

    How can I fix it and add full complete demo

    There’s nothing to fix. When you install a theme, it works with the content already on your site. The images you see on theme pages are carefully crafted to show off all of the features of the theme, but it’s their content, not yours. When you install, it’s your content. You need to do some work to take advantage of the theme.

    Some themes have demo content you can install, too, but that will probably mess up your already existing content.

    I did couple of sites, this is the first time I face this problem…
    I used to install demo and everything runs as the demo (images,text,buttons).
    My site has not content at all, only basic stuff.
    When I’m in home page I can’t see upper navigator bar of wp only when I hit the buttons

    Then check the readme files for your themes and you’ll probably find a link from which to download sample content. If you can’t find it, ask in the themes’ support forums.

    Its nothing to do with the theme…
    I reset the website, again, I have homepage with no upper wp bar when I hit the menu buttons it brings me to “new” website with the option to edit and stuff and again, I hit the home button and it brings me back to the “Broken front page”

    What do you mean by “broken front page”? What upper bar? Please post a screen shot. (Use imgur.com for this.)

    I note that you provided an https link for your site but you do not have a valid SSL certificate installed.

    I fixed the SSL issue few minutes ago…
    when i go to my website the main page is – https://imgur.com/sShGCEu.
    A page with no wp toolbar (at the top of the website, although I’m logged in)
    when I click “my account” i go to different style website with different menu AND the top wp toolbar is visible – https://imgur.com/g2H0jCC

    Do you use any caching plugins or does your host offer server-level caching? Loss of the toolbar is generally a caching issue.

    Yes I’ve preinstalled LiteSpeed Cache plugin…

    Another thing that is very weird,when I access the website from mobile/chrome and not my main browser (fir-fox) I see different homepages.

    Chrome home page (mobile the same) – https://imgur.com/a/bjU2hI3

    Disable the caching and see if that fixes your issue. Be sure to clear your browser cache, too. With respect to the home page, please contact the theme’s developers.
