Actually - it does.
Any time you specify a template to render, you can also specify a *list* of
templates. So, you can do something like this:
def my_view(request):
…
return render(request, [
‘path/to/template/%s/template.html’ % user_theme,
‘path/to/template/default/template.html’,
], {…context…})
That will pick the user’s theme by default; if the user’s theme doesn’t
specify a given template, or the user doesn’t have a theme (or the user’s
theme is set to default), it will use the default theme directory.
Hope that helps!
