vb.org Archive - View Single Post - How to tell how many users are using a certain skin?

It's a bit more complex than that.

The majority of users will change their style using the style chooser at the bottom, rather than going into their options.

If they do it with the style chooser, then it's just setting a cookie, it doesn't record anything in the database. So there's no way to obtain a count of these users.

Somewhere, there's a vB3 mod that alters the style chooser so that it actually updates the user settings, just as if they had gone into the usercp (it leaves the cookie version in place for guests). I've been using it on my site (which has been on vb4 since 2010) for many years. It's loads better...

I found it...it's not a mod as such...just a discussion, but it's from this thread that I managed to make it (on vB3):

I asked at the very end how to make it work on vB4, I did eventually do it but it's too long ago for me to actually recall....
