I built a basic theme and saved it in SCD (not pro).
Then I opened the theme in SCC.
Did some work there.
Saved it.
Tried to preview it and it shows, I think, some other template.
Not even close to what I'm working on.
Huh?
Why?
No Preview

Hiya Gerry,
Did you export the theme to SCC and choose the theme in SCC when you opened the shop file?

Did you then save your shop so that it's using that theme for sure? When you chose the theme it should have showed up in your My Themes area of the selections, is that what you did in SCC after you exported it from SCD?

Yes.
Before I worked on it, I brought up the theme exported from SCD.
It showed a preview of the right theme.
Did some things with it, saved it, and then tried to preview it and that's where I have the problem.
My theme does not show up.
I can show you a screen shot of what does come up, if you like.
Thanks

I think I discovered the problem.
Just now, when I tried another preview, I decided to try a 'view source'.
The logo image url is wrong, so it's showing some random logo.
I never clicked on the categories to see if they worked, and they did just fine.
I'll go back and change the url. Then I think I should be good to go.
I'll let you know.
Sorry, did I forgot to mention that my middle name is STUPID!
Thanks
