Double install a wordpress theme?

by Mike Adams Posted: 15 years ago 3 replies

I'm running wordpress multisite and want to have 2 subpages to run the same theme but with different backgrounds. So I want to install the same theme twice, bud wordpress is kicking it back because it "already installed". How can I edit the theme so wordpress thinks its a different theme?

Hope this makes sense, seems like an easy fix... any help?

Rename the themes containing folder.
Open the CSS and change the comment block at the top of it.
Mainly the theme name.
