I am trying to implament a choice of footers through the ATO panel, I have not really had an issue with prior versions including rev 761 but I now cannot seem to make it happen with the most recent changes to the code.

this is basically my really crude block of code, maybe someone can show me a better way to implement this?  

 

Hi,

in the function themefooter() isn't $Themeinfo imported as global (Standard).
Maybe this could cause the problem ??

A shorter way of coding:

$ThemeInfo['footer'] = (exists($ThemeInfo['footer']) && !empty($ThemeInfo['footer') ? $ThemeInfo['footer'] : 'no');
switch ($ThemeInfo['footer']) {
  case 'yes':  include_once(NUKE_THEMES_DIR.$theme_name."/images/ft/footer.php"); break;
  case 'no': include_once(NUKE_THEMES_DIR.$theme_name."/footer.php"); break;
  default:  include_once(NUKE_THEMES_DIR.$theme_name."/footer.php"); break;
}

You may get a E-Warning if $ThemeInfo['footer'] isn't filled in your way. This is why I added the line for filling the variable with a default value.

I had not thought about that actually and that is a brilliant call on your behalf... bad bad bad Blockhead  

Thank you for posting this solution

Did you test it ? I mean, didn't you import $ThemeInfo as global to the function ??  

 

yes in the past I had used $ThemeInfo as a global, in 2.1.0 I do not see it being called as a global through function themefooter(). I have not added it as of yet but have not been able to make it work as of yet either. If I place your code in I get an errorr message: Fatal error: Call to undefined function exists() in C:\wamp\www\210a\themes\IC_Thornz210\theme.php on line 215

if I negate: $ThemeInfo['footer'] = (exists($ThemeInfo['footer']) && !empty($ThemeInfo['footer']) ? $ThemeInfo['footer'] : 'no');

I get a footer and no error messages, but of course cannot make them switch, I was very tired last night and couldn't muster up the energy to keep pushing forward so I will pick at it some more today and see if I can get it to happen.

Thank you for helping with this ReO you absolutely rock my brotha of anotha motha much respect and gratitude for your work

thank you so much ReO  

 

Is it possible to call to style.css, to switch from style.css to style2.css or something to that nature?  I cant really see where style is called from exactly..  

 

Hi,

style.css is called from header.php.
A Stylesheet must be linked als linkref inside header informations. So there is the place to look for.

To make a switch which is independet on selection of your themeinfo or something like that, you have to call a new function inside your theme.php. This function call must be placed before the linkref is made to the stylesheet.
Because this all happens inside header-informations, you must make shure, that no informations are send outside allowed http-header informations - otherwise you will get a "header allready sent" error.
