  1. Your assistant copies the active theme into a separate draft. Visitors continue to see the active theme.
  2. It edits only the draft files. PHP syntax and JSON formatting are checked before saving.
  3. It gives you a preview link. Open it while logged in to review the changes.
  • “Undo the last change to the draft’s style.css.”
  • “Search the draft for every place the header colour is set.”
  • Theme drafts require Pro.
  • The preview runs the draft’s PHP. Syntax checks do not catch every possible error, so review the preview before activation.
