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.
<h4>What does it do?</h4>
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 <a href="plugins@zodan.nl" rel="nofollow ugc">plugins@zodan.nl</a>!

Zodan Theme Switcher


Z Theme Switcher has quickly become one of my favourite tools when working on new WordPress themes. It solves a very specific problem in a clean and effective way: being able to preview a different theme — just for yourself or selected user roles — without changing the live site for visitors.



What I really like:




It’s lightweight and easy to set up



You can control exactly who sees the development theme



The optional front-end switch button is handy during testing



It keeps everything safe and invisible to regular users




I often need to develop or fine-tune a new design while a site stays online. With this plugin, I can work directly on the live server, test things in context, or share previews with clients — all without setting up a separate staging environment.



It’s clear the developer understands real-world needs. The plugin is actively maintained and feels reliable. If you work with custom themes, this is definitely worth adding to your toolkit.


A simple but very useful tool for theme developers

Allow (certain) users(roles) to easily switch to another theme. Non-persistent, so regular users won't be bothered.

注意：请最好不要勾选“自定义显示位置”，那样会很麻烦，容易出错。一切都交给插件吧！ 
你可以直接将要作为按钮的图片放到插件的“img”目录中，然后在后台就可以选择你添加的这张图片了。 
但是还要注意，如果你选择的图片的宽度和高度不是默认的22，那么你还需要在图片的宽度和高度选项中填写你的这张图片的宽度和高度，否则图片将无法完整显示。
