Where did the preview button on themes go?
-
I’m looking to change my theme, but all I can find now is the ‘activate’ button. I really want to preview my own blog in a theme before I make a decision. Anyone know what happened to the preview buttons?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
When I go to appearance > themes I see activate, preview and details below the theme thumbnail. Are you not seeing those?
-
-
No, not seeing ‘preview’ at all, only ‘activate’.
Which site, my site? is here: http://mayapanika.wordpress.com/

Log out, clear your browser cache and cookies, restart your browser and take another look.
Also, what browser and browser version are you using?
Have you tried a different browser?
-
Cache cookies etc – Already did all that 2ce.
I’m using Mozilla 3-6-15 – never had any trouble with it on WordPress before, I don’t really like other browsers, but will give it a go on chrome, see if that helps. I should update Mozilla I suppose, there was reason I didn’t, or went back to an older version., but I can;t remember what that was now .
But anyway, thanks for your time.

Hi! We’ve introduced a new way to preview and customize themes. You should see it as a link that says ‘Live Preview’ below theme thumbnails on your Appearance → Themes page.
If you dont’ see the ‘Live Preview’ link right away, try refreshing the themes page.
See this announcement for more info:

Thank you for your help! I didn’t get an email heads-up for your comment so sorry for the late response.
