Wordpress Theme Test Drive
By Josh | February 10, 2008
Have a new Wordpress theme that you think would look great on your site? Sometimes I find a theme that I think would look awesome, but then it ends up just looking like crap. Well, over the past few days I have been using the Theme Test Drive plugin that allows only me to see a different theme than the one seen by my regular visitors. That way I can tweak things on a new theme before it goes live.
Once the plugin is installed, you can then go to your Presentation tab when logged in as an administrator. You will then see a new link to Theme Test Drive. It will then have a list of your installed themes that you can choose from. Once you enable a theme, you will then be able to view it when browsing your own website. This combined with Firebug, is a great way to tweak your theme. I’ve been getting a lot of things ironed out just the way I want it before I make it my default theme.
