Beskrivelse
When we are developing themes, we quite often like to switch between the old (active) and the new (to develop) version of a theme. Sometimes without other people noticing.
This plugin does exactly that.
What does it do?
It lets users with certain roles see another (than the currently active) theme, by
* Selecting a theme from the list of installed themes
* Selecting which user roles are permitted to switch themes and
* Optionally, selecting user roles that can use a ‘switch theme/back’ button on the front-end
This plugin is under active development. Any feature requests are welcome at plugins@zodan.nl!

FAQ
-
Does it work in a multisite environment?
-
Yep. It does.
-
Hm. It could be that you are using a theme that does not call wp_footer() (which is the hook it is linked to).
In that case, you can use the custom hook/action for this.
Just add the following php code (make sure it is somehow called on every page): -
Do you have plans to improve the plugin?
-
We currently have on our roadmap:
* Adding translations
* Adding a custom capability (to be used next to roles, for those who want to add a custom role)
* Set the preference per userIf you have a feature suggestion, send us an email at plugins@zodan.nl.
