    • Does anyone know the best way to make a demo server like the one here on Rocket Theme? We have some custom templates that we want to use for design "starters" for our customers so that they can get an idea of what they look like live before they customize it. These of course are not Rocket Theme templates but custom templates.

      It seems there must be some type of multiiste component or something that can be used. Any suggestions anyone?

      Thanks

      The demo site is using separate installs for each template and is displaying them in a wrapper.

      There's no mulit-site component used, all the templates are installed in subfolders and displayed in an iframe with a dropdown menu.

      You can do something similar, it all depends how fancy you want to get.

      The easiest way would be to install all your demos in separate folders and then link them from an Article (perhaps with a short description of each) and then set them to open in the parent frame or a new window.

      A new window may be a good idea since it would allow your clients to do side by side comparisons without having to navigate back to the Article to open a new template.
