Managing and modifying *themes* requires accessing enabling the *Theme Designer*.

*Only authorized users may access the Theme Designer. See *Controlling Design Tab Access* for more info.
Theme Press recalculates look-and-feel information every time a change is made in the Theme Designer (and also when responding to a *browser force-reload*).
These recalculations/re-renderings add to the performance load on the server.
For this reason, we recommend that you only design themes in a test or development environment, rather than in a production environment.
