Ah, that makes sense. Thanks again!

Perfect, that's exactly what I was looking for, thank you! :) From looking at the addon I see you are listening on the controller_pre_dispatch event, and getting a copy of the visitor instance which is what you are changing the 'style_id' property on. Just out of curiosity, how is XF picking...

Yeah, for the most part it does what I'm looking for, however it falls short it being able to handle some of the custom logic I need to employ, such as checking the values of specific browser cookies, or looking at records in a non-XF database table. At the very least though it should serve as...

Thanks for the reply, Chris. I have seen that addon, however I was looking to just implement something myself, as I wanted to keep the additional overhead as minimal as possible, and don't need any Admin CP management of the rules or anything like that. Also I have some criteria which would not...

Hi guys, brand new XF license holder here :) and just had a quick question about styles: Is there a way (through hooks maybe?) to programmatically globally force a certain style to be used based on some arbitrary criteria, regardless of what the user has selected, or what the default forum...

That would definitely be awesome. Look forward to seeing what you've come up with. Edit: Also if you wouldn't mind posting here once you release the tools, I'd greatly appreciate it. :)

I'm assuming though that in order to see my changes I would have to continually re-import this xml file back into the database? And if that one file contains every css/html template I'd imagine it would be very big and unwieldy.

I just meant it would kinda be a no brainer if you had the choice between the Admin CP, or a regular desktop editor and actual local files. :) That is nice that there is a global search function though, I must have missed that. I could probably list off alot of other editor functionality but...

I'm kinda surprised its not something thats requested more often. Something that IP.Board has which is quite nice is that it lets you export a skin's template and css files as actual files, and if the forum is in dev mode, it will load the exported files for the skin instead of whats in the...

I'm sure this topic has probably been beaten to death, but I am very interested in Xenforo and am seriously considering it, I really like almost everything about it, except for one major thing, the template/style editing options. If I go with XenForo, it will be for a project that requires a...
