[RFC] hook_style_id

[YukataNinja]

• Name: hook_style_id
• Rationale: The mod could select a style for given scenarios. The specific scenario I'm interested in is changing the style when the user is at a specific url (m.mysite.com) to switch to a mobile friendly style. I can easily think of other scenarios, like changing the style on the user's birthday.
• Placement: I did a writeup of how to do this for phpbb3 here: http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopi ... #p12879306. Basically there are two spots where the style is set:
  
  style.php

  Code: Select all

  	if (!$user)
  	{
  		[u]$id			= ($id) ? $id : $config['default_style'];[/u]
  //		Commented out because calls do not always include the SID anymore
  //		$recompile	= false;
  		$user		= array('user_id' => ANONYMOUS);
  	}
  

  includes/session.php

  Code: Select all

  		else
  		{
  			// Set up style
  			[u]$style = ($style) ? $style : ((!$config['override_user_style']) ? $this->data['user_style'] : $config['default_style']);[/u]
  		}
  

• Input arguments: style id number
• Output format: none
• Output semantics: n/a
• Infrastructure: n/a
• Related: n/a

That would be very useful for styles demo mod too.
