Theme Switcher
Permalink
Does any know a way to display a different theme for a specific user group? We have installed a new theme on a client's site and want them to preview it with their existing content before pushing it live.
mnkras developed a theme switcher for 5.6, free and source is on github. It may be possible to adapt it.
Switching by user group (rather than user input) is probably the easy part.
Making it work with 5.7/v8 could be the tricky part as the way themes work has changed a fair bit.

I am not aware of a way to switch themes based on user group membership.
As an alternative, and general best practice, I would backup the client's files and database and use it to construct a demo installation for them to preview.
