SetSkinByCookiePlugin

Lets you set the current skin by using a cookie

Introduction

By setting a cookie like SetSkin=collaborganize you can change your current displayed sking accordingly. This plugins supports diffrent modes, so you can add the skin or skins addded by the cookie to the skin-list which is present right now, or you simply overwrite all other settings and force this skin to be used in any cases.

USAGE

You can define the Cookie-Name which should be used to set the skin in the configuration center ( bin/configure ), by default this is SetSkin. If you prefix the follwing things, you can switch between the modes described in the introduction
Prefix Meaning
< Add the defined skin or skin list to the current skin list, but on the left side.
. This means, the SetSkin skins will be used in a higher priority
> Add the defined skin or skin list to the current skin list, but on the right side.
. This means, the SetSkin skins will be used in a lower priority
no prefix Overwrite the current skin settings and force the SetSkin to be the only one

Expamples: Your current skin would be +SKIN="nat, pattern"*
  • SetSkin = "<collaborganize"
    • Result: SKIN = "collaborganize, nat, pattern"
  • SetSkin = ">collaborganize"
    • Result: SKIN = "nat, pattern, collaborganize"
  • SetSkin = "collaborganize"
    • Result: SKIN = "collaborganize"

Hint: This also overrules the parameter &skin= !
