How to change the colour theme in wordpress site already existing - wordpress

I am trying out wordpress, never did anything with it. I have to change the colors of an already existing website. When I select a different theme and press "apply", it doesn't work. The colors and the theme does not change.
Someone can tell me how to do it? Thank you.

The colors of the website does not depend on the theme which is installed.
You can change the colors by adding css and selecting global tags such as body or whatever. You could use the Custom CSS & JS plugin to do that.

What happens to the additional CSS code in customize section when theme is updated?

I have a premium theme installed and I need to add some custom CSS to add some new styles.
So what will happen if I add the CSS to the additional css section in the customize? Will I lose them when the theme is updated?
Should I install a plugin or create a simple one for this?
I tried to search about that, But didn't find an answer.
The css placed in the customize wont be lost after a theme update.
But the best practice is to create a child theme in order to customize your theme.

How to write an admin theme plugin in wordpress

I am wondering if anyone can help me to find an easy to change the whole layout theme without changing source code. Is it possible to overwrite the layout in the admin theme plugin?

You should create "Theme Option Page" instead of creating plugin for Theme setting like colors and other style in wordpress ! For reference :

How to set different colors in the title for WordPress

I am new to WordPress. And I want to set diffrent colors in the title of the customizr theme.
How could I finish that? I know that if withou WordPress, I could use css and span tag finish that like how to set different colors in html in one statement.
But how could I do that in a WordPress theme.
You still have to use css. If you want to edit the theme, locate the theme folder first. Go to wp-content/themes/customizr or whatever the theme folder is.
Usually the title can be found in few different files: single.php, page.php, index.php, etc., it depends from theme to theme. Many developers include templates inside each of these files too. Again, everything changes from theme to theme.
My recommendations is to create a child theme to perform any customization. Also I recommend reading the codex to know more about WordPress development and theme development, that way you learn more how things come together and work.

Changing posts scheme in wordpress

How can I changing posts scheme in wordpress ?
Do I need to use for this plugin?
e.g : here - posts scheme on home page
I'm not entirely sure I understand the question, but will try to answer it.
If you want to change the way your posts look, you can do one of these methods:
1) Use a different theme. Download and install new theme, then activate it.
2) Use custom CSS. Some themes support adding custom CSS. If your theme does not support it, you can make a Child Theme and edit the "style.css" file.

Modify wordpress site independently of theme

I am using a WordPress theme in a site. I want to edit the bottom of the page, replacing the WordPress default message and replace it with a custom message. The problem is, the change I want to make should be independent of the theme. I can change that editing footer.php using admin panel. Problem is, I do not want the changes to be reverted as soon as I change the theme. Can anyone suggest how to achieve that? Besides I want to remove the WordPress logo, too.
This isn't the way wordpress works I am afraid.
Anything that is tied to the database (posts, pages etc etc) will remain from theme to theme, but any changes you make to the theme files directly (editing default footer text) are tied to not just that theme, but those specific files. If you change the theme, or update the theme to a new version, your changes will be lost.
You are editing a file, and that file will no longer be in use when you switch theme.
You could use a plugin to create an overlay layer at the bottom of the page but this would be a fairly nasty solution and would be liable to appear differently when you change the theme.
Alternately, a plugin could be used to inject some javascript that modifies the footer but again, would depend on the theme as to what classes/IDs you'd be wanting to modify.
Basically this isn't something that's done!
