Working on Wordpress as well. This would come in handy.

Do you mean just the theme? Or the whole WordPress site?

Either is fine. But the standard export/import functionality will not export the theme. So I don't mind getting the entire site along with it, but currently the export/import functionality depends on you already having moved over the original theme so that can cause a major issue when the theme itself doesn't export.

I use this site to do all my backups, updates, etc. It's really cheap, like $4 a month.
It also does importing/exporting of sites.
It's what I used to get our test environment to the live server.

and it moves themes around too? Via what connection?

It moves the entire site. Migrates, or clones.
Like if you were going from GoDaddy to Bluehost. Or GoDaddy to your own server.

$45 per site per year seems a bit on the expensive side. That's more than it costs to host the sites in the first place!

I remember there was a manual way to do it as well, I think.
It's been a long time since I did it.

Wp Clone Template if you only want the theme. You could also just download the theme from the place you bought it from.
Most people usually migrate the whole site not just the theme.All-in-one Wp Migration to migrate with everything you choose from one host to another or from local to production server.

I use updraft plus. It is free for the functionality you need. It backs up themes, media, plugins, db, etc. You can just chose one, two, or all of them to back up. It saves them to zip files. When restoring on the other installation you will need to install Updraft Plus then upload the zip files.
One of the cool things about Updraft Plus is the fact that you can automatically create backups to your Google Drive and you can select how many backups you want to keep. All of that is included in the free version.

Yeah you can do this manually by just copying the Themes folder under WP-Content

Sorry to quote myself, but keep in mind that this only copies the theme files and not the database. So your site won't automatically point to theme once you copy the files over.

I have to change our theme soon. The theme maker (WooThemes) no longer supports it.
Anyone have a theme place they really like?

UpDraft
Yep, UpDraft is the bomb. I love the autobackups to cloud storage. You can't beat free.
