    I want to change the X-Theme name and replace it with the name of the companies I’m designing for. How do I achieve this and can I do it when the site is live?

    This isn;t what I’m asking. I want to know how I hide the fact that I’m using the X-Theme on the installed themes page on wordpress

    Hi There,
    In WordPress Admin, please navigate to Appearance > Editor > edit file style.css.
    After that, change Theme Name: X to Theme Name: Your Company Name.
    Hope it helps.

    Ah one more question. How do I stop the theme details from popping up on hover over the theme box? I’ve got the photo for the file but where is the file to allow the appearance of theme details?

    Hi There,
    Still in the style.css, please take a look at the description:
    – Change:

    
    Description: An immensely powerful and endlessly customizable WordPress theme.
    

    – To:

    
    Description: Your description.
    

    And same as the Theme URI, Author, Author URI, …
    Hope it helps.

    I’ve already done that, it’s the theme details that come up on hover and then takes you to the page with all the details on X I need to stop happening.

    Hi,

    I tried changing the theme name in the style.css on both the parent and child themes but the WPSNIFFER chrome extension is still seeing the theme as X. Is there a more robust way of doing this or is it perhaps possible that the extension has a cache that is still holding the name X?

    Thanks

    Hi @amma1

    If you change the theme name and directory name then it shouldn’t be recognized as X theme. However we are not sure about the extension you are referring. It might be cache.

    Thanks
