 * I am working on building my website. I changed my theme but what I see and what
   other people see are two different themes (I see under “view site” the theme 
   i want, but when people go to my site, they are seeing the old theme). I checked
   to make sure my theme was active and even deleted any other theme to where the
   theme I want to be seen is the only theme I have. Yet, people are still seeing
   the old theme. What do I do?!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fchanging-theme-32%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Jose, I am not.
 * Steve, I went to appearance > theme > add new > install > activate > publish
 * I then deleted the other themes, so the only theme in my theme section is the
   one I am using currently.

 * Reinstall twentyseventeen, make it the active theme, then switch back to “Bloggers
   Lite” and make it active.
 * If that does not change things, please install the health check plugin and report
   back its findings from the debug tab : [https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/)

 * Okay I tried the above and it is still showing twentyseventeen as the active 
   theme from a visitor’s point of view.
 * I installed the health check plugin, and unless I am doing something wrong, it
   is not giving me any notices of something being wrong.
