I think there should be a button called “Visitor View” next to “See Inside”. Only the creator of the project should be able to see it. When the creator clicks the button, the desc will change to can't be edited and tags can be clicked. When the creator clicks the button again, everything should back to normal. This would make checking project tags and other things easier. It would save time.

Update: This button should be in profile page, too. It can work for “about me” and “what I'm working on”.

Another Idea: Boomer001 gave this idea. Thanks for him!

Also in studio description.

(basically visitor mode will be in studio desc, too)

This Is How Will It Look Like On Project Page
(sorry it's bad)

Normal. When You Click It (remix is unusable)
It will turn into normal when you click it again.

Edit: fixed the grammar errors

Support. Sometimes, I put a link or a username in the description of my project and I can't just click on it and check if I am right, and “Visitor View” would allow that.

sorry i have to bump

Support for this.

Would be useful for testing if links and such in your project description work.

Support as per the reasons above.

It's annoying to never know if your links work unless you either use a different account or ask someone.

Support, I hate having to log off and go on an alt account and log back on just to do this.

Support for the reasons mentioned above.

Support!
It's always kind of annoying having to log out just to see how things will look. This will make things much easier.

This is useful, and could save a lot of time for people who need to format descriptions, but there is a workaround currently, so I don't think that this should be super high priority.

I support!! This would be super helpful for making sure links work and testing if you typed someone's username right. It would also be good when you want to see how the notes+credits look (some people only use the n+c so the instructions tab doesn't show up… im sure you know this but whatever) if you're trying the make it look nice.

Support. it would be nice to have that option, since you will be able to see and interact your project like a visitor if you want to test links and usernames. You could always workaround this by logging out or by viewing the project in another web browser or in private mode like I do, however that requires having the project published, while the suggestion you've made wouldn't require that.

Bump.

support. It would be really useful to check I've put in usernames and links correctly

I like this because sometimes if a word is too long in a sentence, the sentence goes onto the scroll and you're no longer able to scroll down

Full Support.
People have said everything already.
