Is there any way that I can work on a new style and view the progress without it being available to everyone in general?

What I do is enable it for a split second, go into my profile and choose it, then disable it.

Yes I've done the same but it would be useful to be able to leave it set as viewable to admins only. Maybe a future feature request. wink

Is there not a code you can add to the URL like cfrm?style=test

I seem to remember seeing something similar in a post somewhere. Maybe it was for something different. confused

Your license allows you to setup an addition testforum if I'm correct.

I use this testforum for any changes I want to try out.

Is it actually written that you can use a testform? It used to just be a grey area that wasn't really covered...

But yeh, you can use the command to view the main forum listing; in fact on my styles i release i generally link to this page with each style. I was hinting at this above.

It won't let you do anything though, linking to this page, it'll actually not allow you to click on anything on the page, which leaves it so that you can only view the main index.
