Style Switcher

[Dr.CSS]

Does anyone know how to use the styleswitcher Module, doc. is very lacking?

Help for the StylesheetSwitcher module
What does this module do?

It provides an interface for users to switch stylesheets. The stylesheets it uses are the selection of additive stylesheets that are located under Content > stylesheets.
How should I use it?

There are two ways to integrate this page into the front end, both represent themselves as standard tags, so you use {cms_module module="stylesheetswitcher"} with any of the arguments below.
What parameters are there?

There are a couple of tunable parameters:

    * use_javascript [true|false] Set this styleswitcher to use AJAX in compliant browsers. not implemented yet
    * format [selector|summary|summary_link|link] This can have three valid values: 'selector' will display a page content that allows a user to select a selection of page styles (ie more than one). 'summary' displays a smaller drop down that is suitable for inline display ('summary_link' displays the same drop down with a link to a copy of the output from 'selector'). 'link' provides a link to a page containing 'selector'

Parameters

    * (optional) lang="en_US" - Parameter is used to specify what language to use for display on the frontend. Not all modules support or need this.

is this,,

format [selector|summary|summary_link|link]

like this,,

cms_module module="stylesheetswitcher" format="summary"}

have no luck using it,

To be honest I don't use CMS's style sheets but use my own style sheets and style sheet switcher tags and selector tags?

So the answer is no...

I think it's an issue with the new stylesheet.php code.  Try setting the old_stylesheet to true in config.php.

[Dr.CSS]

got it to work, but i would rather switch templates tried to change the .php but the stylesheets are called 2 ways css and style,
$prefix.

this is what i have so far... not sure how to call the templates... tried tpl and template
