    Hi,

    if you want to host different wordpress themes on your ftp. Let's say 3, both a complete different wordpress theme. And you want to sell all 3 of them but to do this you need to show them to your clients. What do you do, install wordpress 3 times? (sounds stupid) or put them all 3 in the templates directory. But what would the link be then if the themes are called theme1 , theme2, theme3.

    Hi,
    Isn't the link than /wp-content/themes/*template name*/index.php ?

    And I would give screens... if that would be fine :)

    This does not work Aquarezz. You need to install a plugin such as Theme Test Drive or such similar plugin . This wil allow to use preview any theme in your theme directory but downside is it will only show the homepage. Thus you need to install wordpress mutiple times in order to show the full theme. I cant seem to find a work around.
