    Hi!

    I found this great plugin to preview a new theme for a project I am doing. Great stuff!

    In my project I am using 2 sets of menu’s. One for theme “NEW” and one for theme “OLD”. In PHP I use wp_get_theme() to retrieve the active theme to show the correct menu for each theme.

    Only problem is, while previewing theme “NEW”, theme “OLD” is always considered ACTIVE in WP. Figures…! 🙂

    Does your plugin offer a similar PHP function to wp_get_theme() to retrieve the current VIEWED theme?

    Thanks!

    Hi Erik,

    Glad to help:

    1) “Does your plugin offer a similar PHP function to wp_get_theme() to retrieve the current VIEWED theme?”

    Not currently, but I like the idea and will try to implement such a function in the next version of Theme Switcha.

    Thank you for the feedback!

    Just to follow up, the upcoming version (1.8) provides a function to get the current active theme:

    theme_switcha_active_theme()

    Thanks again, Erik!
