Testing Locksmith on unpublished themes

By default, Locksmith will only automatically install itself to and update itself on the currently published theme, and does not automatically install itself to unpublished themes. However, there is a way to test Locksmith on unpublished themes.

To test Locksmith on an unpublished theme:

1. Head to the in-app "Themes" page.

2. Click the "Install" button for the theme you'd like to test Locksmith on:

1. To preview the lock configuration you just installed, click the three-dot menu (…) next to the theme name, and select Preview:

When testing your locks on unpublished or the currently published theme, we recommend using a brand new private browsing session each time: How to use a private browsing session

Please note: when making changes to your locks and Locksmith settings, Locksmith will only update those on the currently published theme. To update the unpublished theme after making changes in-app, just click the "Install" button for that theme next to the theme name again, as outlined above.

To remove Locksmith from an unpublished theme:

1. Head to the in-app "Themes" page.

2. Click the "Uninstall" button for the theme you'd like to remove Locksmith from:

Setting a secondary theme:

Locksmith supports setting a Secondary theme, which receives automatic updates along with your published theme when changes are made in Locksmith.

2. Click the three-dot menu (…) next to the theme name.

3. Select Set as secondary theme:

This theme will now receive all future updates made in Locksmith, in addition to the published theme.
