Preview a theme

You can preview a theme on the Themes page before applying it to ensure it meets your expectations and brand guidelines.

Considerations

  • Editing the theme during theme preview: Changes made to a theme do not automatically affect the theme preview when the theme is actively being previewed. See the Refresh a theme preview section below. While previewing, any unsaved changes made to a theme must be saved before clearing the theme preview to avoid losing the changes. 

Who can do this?

  • Workplace administrators

To preview a theme while editing the theme:
