Hello!

 

You can have different theme for mobile version, but it requires coding.

 

You can also have a second shop for mobile and use htaccess redirect in case of mobile device.

I have created a new theme for mobile devices.

What code is necessary?

 

I want that every user can choose between the themes, with only one shop.

 

Or I would like:

 

www.web.xxx?theme_name=

 

to change the theme, for the user.

Hello!

 

To use different themes you need to edit the settings.inc.php and define the _THEME_NAME_ depending on the URL.

[davidgamo]

But, How can I do it?

 

I need the code. Thanks.

Hello,

 

You can download the script to detect mobile phone from: http://detectmobilebrowsers.mobi/

 

Include the file in settings.php.inc and use an if statement to set the theme.

But, when I change the theme in the admin panel, the file settings.php.inc is created automatically (the code is overriden).

 

What can I do?

If you are not wanting a totally new design for mobile views, just something that works better on mobile devices use media queries

I don't understand you.

 

I have to use two different themes. One theme for mobile devices and the other one for laptop, PC, etc..

 

I modified the settings.php.inc file (adding the script):

 

 

...

require_once('mobile_device_detect.php');

$mobile = mobile_device_detect();

 

if($mobile==true){

define('_THEME_NAME_', 'mobile');

}else{

define('_THEME_NAME_', 'prestashop');

}

...

 

But this is a good solution if I don't change the theme with the administration panel, because the settings.php.inc file is overwritten.

If I set the readonly attribute to the file, I cant change the theme, with the administration panel.

Hello,

 

yes, that is the downside of this solution.

 

If it doesn't suit your needs you will need to implement a different solution for setting the theme folder. As _THEME_NAME_ is a constant you can not change the value on run-time, so you will need to change the source code of every file which uses _THEME_NAME_ .
