Featured image not showing when Theme Switcha is activated

    Hi Jeff! I just realized something: I activated my ‘themetest’ theme using Theme Switcha and saved the changes. Then I added the code in my functions.php (in the themetest folder) to display the Featured Image in the Post Admin:

    add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' );

    But it wasn’t showing in the Post Admin. So I deactivated Theme Switcha (to be sure it won’t interfere) and I activated my themetest theme directly from the WP Admin, and now the Featured Image is showing in the Post Admin.

    I decided to reactivate your plugin, I selected my themetest again and then the Featured Image wasn’t showing anymore in the Post Admin. That’s how I know the issue has to do with your plugin.

    Do you know why I can’t modify the functions.php from the theme I’m working on when I select it from your plugin? It’s important because it’s the only way I have to work on a theme that is not yet ready to be online…

    Thanks for your help! ??

    Glad to help! By default, Theme Switcha does not switch the WP Admin Area, only the front-end. To change that, you can enable the setting, “Apply switching to Admin Area”, and Theme Switcha will switch both front and back ends.
