Change Style Drop-Down

This is exactly what you see here, on this board's main page.
It allows you to easily change the style you are using.
Please note that it does not update your user profile as well, it simply sets a cookie, and until it expires you will see the style you selected.
Anyhow, download the attached .txt file and do what it says.

Scroll down to a post by me if you'd like the hack to update the user setting in the database!
The attached version does NOT do that!

Have fun and happy holidays!

never mind the previous post. I solved the problem

My second remark still stands. I have 7 styles and can only see 3 of them as only 3 of them are currently in use. At the same time I would still like to see how many users are using which style.

Well.. the hack works ok ONLY on the main page of this forum !?
I tryed and have same problems.. doesn't show OK the number of users wich use a style

Anyone can help me with AN WORKING version ? Just like this one from here !? Pls

PS: from over 600 members ONLY 32 are using the "default" template and 2 the second one :stoned:
I want to see exactly HOW MANY users are using the templates..

is there a way I can add this hack and make it unknown how many people are using the default style? In other words, let's say I don't want my user total to be so obvious, and I have...

default (all others)
style 1 (10 users)
style 2 (15 users)
etc.

I'm guessing this can be done by a simple If statement, but I'm not as proficient as I'd like to be.

This Hack only shows User-selectable styles right? Because I have a lot of Styles for certain sections of the Board that aren't user selectable anc I don't want those showing up in there.

Yes TELEK.

Hi,

could it be that you can only choose a style if at least one member choosed this in his user cp options?

I installed the hack! All the 4 test members just had the default in her options. So in the style drop down there was only the default style shown! Then i changed the style in the options of member A! Then it was also shown in forumhome!???

Is that normal?

+Thanks

Try changing this:

$allstyles=$DB_site->query("SELECT style.title, user.styleid, COUNT(*) AS count FROM user LEFT JOIN style USING (styleid) WHERE style.styleid IS NOT NULL AND style.userselect=1 GROUP BY user.styleid");

to this:

$allstyles=$DB_site->query("SELECT style.title, user.styleid, COUNT(*) AS count FROM style LEFT JOIN user USING (styleid) WHERE style.userselect=1 GROUP BY user.styleid");
