An mu-plugin that forces a WordPress theme to always be active. Intended for a [Headless WordPress](https://www.gatsbyjs.com/docs/glossary/headless-wordpress/) setup.

Config
------

[](#config)

Out of the box, this mu-plugin expects [wp-headless-theme](https://github.com/masonitedoors/wp-headless-theme) to be installed.

You can set your own theme using the available filter in a separate mu-plugin.

```
add_filter( 'wp_theme_lock', function() {
  return 'twentytwenty'; // Theme directory to lock.
});
```
