But I think that, technically, it is possible. Maybe you could suggest the idea to a developer of a switcher plugin and see what they say. Nicolas Kuttler, the developer of Theme Switch and Preview, is a good developer and also responsive: http://www.nkuttler.de/wordpress-plugin/theme-switch-and-preview-plugin/ @McErrick

I really need to cache my pages somehow to cut on loading time. Does this mean I'm unable to use ANY kind of style switcher? hm.. about this caching business..

Theme Switcher Reloaded started redirecting to the homepage sometime around WordPress 2.9. I have always been using the method with the Text Widget and the manual links, which still works fine, and had not noticed. I think you chose a good alternative in the Theme Switch and Preview plugin. It is a good plugin, it has some advanced options, and it also works with the manual method I describe. All in all, it gives you everything you may need. Maria, you are right. Theme Switcher Reloaded started redirecting to the homepage sometime around WordPress 2.9.

I only have a problem, when I switch the theme using this link, it redirects to the website home page. Somebody knows if there's a way so that it stays in the current page?
