• I’ve noticed in the page source of some themes that they’ve changed the theme name to their site name.
    src=”http://www.sitename/wp-content/themes/sitename/

    Is that what their doing? Why is that necessary? Or is it just optional?
    And are they just changing the name of the folder and uploading it?

    For example, if you are using a child theme, you can name your child theme whatever you want.

    Or if you design/create/develop your own theme, you can name it whatever you want.

    not necccessary; just fun 😉

    i assume these people are doing it as a kind of ‘corporate identy’ – to point out that the theme is custom-made/customized for their site.

    And are they just changing the name of the folder and uploading it?

    ideally, they would also change the theme name in style.css.

    So..I’m new to this WP thing.
    Are you saying they are buying a WP theme, then customizing it and changing the folder name?
    And, the css name?

    some might do just this; others might customize one of the many free themes; even others might programm their own theme from scratch – often starting with a photoshop graphic design …
