I'm working on a big new theme that I plan to roll out in a months time. I have a few beta test members that can access it to give me feedback, but guests can't view it for obvious reasons.
How can I do some testing for guests? Like how Facebook has that feature to see what your profile looks like to other people.
Could I just write a small plugin that if you are logged in to a test account, it switches your $mybb->user['usergroup'] to 0? Would that break anything?

You're missing what I'm in need of. I've been using MyBB for years so I know how to do all of that.
What I need to do is view a theme as a guest but not for all guests. I don't want guests viewing my new secret theme. I just want to test how it looks and behaves for guests.

This is impossible because no one has done this before and when it came to creating a theme people normally do it on a test board so they can view as a guest and others are unaware of it.
yes, quick theme is perfect. this is exactly what i used when developing the new harajuju.
One of those plugins has a bug (IIRC), by brad-t comment I suppose it is "Quick Theme OnChange".
