 * Hi
    I’m looking to change up our home page. We currently use a specific theme
   but I would like to try the new Twenty Twenty Two theme.
 * Is there a way I can try this on a specific, unpublished page so I can build 
   a new home page without disturbing our current homepage until I am ready?
    At
   the moment if I select the theme it instantly changes all of our website which
   I don’t want to happen until I have had time to work through each page and make
   it how we want it…beginning with the home page!

 * Hi [@shannon1995](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shannon1995/),
 * There is a plugin that can help you with that. I am sharing an article that has
   careful instructions.
 * Nevertheless, make sure that you go through it fully and that you create a backup
   of the site to not lose data.
