Share a theme preview

A theme preview URL renders the site with that theme while the live site continues to use its selected theme.

Copy the link

In the Basker admin:

1. Go to Design, then Themes.
2. Find the theme in the theme library.
3. Click Copy preview link.

The copied URL uses a theme-specific preview host. In production it has the form:

https://{theme-id}.baskerpreview.com

Open the link. Browse the normal site paths on that host, such as pages, events, and posts, to exercise the theme.

Check before sharing

• The preview resolves the draft version of the selected theme and runs in preview mode.
• Preview mode can expose draft content. Treat the URL as a public share link. Do not send it more widely than intended.
• The preview host does not switch the live site's selected theme.
• This theme-library link is not the expiring, signed content-preview link available from individual content records.

Before activation, check the main page types, template variants, blocks, settings, assets, localized routes, and a not-found URL. Browser developer tools are useful for spotting failed asset or API requests.
