Generally you're going to want to see the theme that you are working on so that would be the active theme for the shop.\n>\n> My workflow has been to create a test shop in the Partners area (you can signup for free http://www.shopify.com/partners) and then import whatever theme I am working on into that test shop. Once it's finished I can import it into the real store.\n>\n> If someone creates a patch that adds support for this I will pull it in, but I really don't see it being that useful.\n>\n> ---\n> Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub:\n> https://github.com/Shopify/shopify_theme/issues/7#issuecomment-2708966","id":2714886,"created_at":"2011-11-12T00:09:05Z"}}
