These switcher for wordpress 2.3.x ?

Discussion in 'WordPress' started by Brandon Sheley, Dec 9, 2007.

    I'm looking for a theme switcher plugin that will work with wordpress 2.3.x versions.

    I think I found one that works for older versions, but I need one for the newest WP version which is 2.3.1 if I'm not mistaken.

    thanks

    The Theme Switcher plugin by Ryan Boren still works perfectly on my 2.3.x WordPress installation, despite it being pretty old. I use it to as a means for clients to swap between themes on my PureWordPress site; however the plugin can be a little temperamental at times if you have themes with foreign characters in the title.

    One of my members just posted a link to this switcher, do I just add it to the plugins folder, then do I need to add some code in a widget or something to get the "switcher" drop down ?

    thanks

    here is a newer version of the one you posted

    http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/theme-switcher/

    do I upload the theme-switcher.php file into the plugins folder ? or do I upload the theme-switcher/theme-switcher.php the folder as well into the plugins folder ?

    also, to view the styles do we just need to add ?wptheme=ThemeName after the url ? is there a widget drop down or something ?

    I'm going to check this link out, see if I can figure it out.

    thanks

    There is also Theme Test Drive that allows you to test any theme live without your visitors knowing it.

    Well I'm wanting to let the users see the other themes, but one to show to all guest by default.

    thanks though
