Custom UI

I added a bit of jquery to get this done. Instead of submitting a form supplied by the plugin, I used this:

$(".themes li").click(function (event) {
        var styleID = $(this).attr("data-switch");

        event.preventDefault();

        $.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            url: window.location,
            data: {
                user_stylesheet_switcher_choice: styleID
            },
            complete: function () {
                window.location.reload(true);
            }
        });

        return false;

    });

Then I just used the session variable set up by the plugin to highlight the currently selected theme in my UI.

Works so far in my testing! 🙂

The site isn’t live yet. Still working on it. I’ll try to remember to circle back around here to post a link once it’s done.

The above code works great for just loading the proper css file on the fly.
One thing I do have to get hooked up at some point is assigning the theme choice as a user variable so that the selected theme will follow the user. But, that’s a little ways off as we’ll be using a forum user database instead of the default WP user table. So, what I need to hook into isn’t even there yet.

Slowly, but surely! 🙂

Thanks! I will do that the first chance I get!
