Hi everybody!
Here how I have resolved my problem with changing page's layout on-
the-fly:)
I have created my own extension folder with my namespace-tags for
unusual
tasks.
desc %{
Works like design switcher.
}
tag 'gsession:design' do |tag|
design_type = request.session["gsession_design"]
if design_type == nil
design_type = GenieSessionExtension.defaults[:design]
request.session["gsession_design"] = design_type
end
design_type.strip!
if layout = Layout.find_by_name(tag.attr["#{design_type}"])
tag.globals.page.layout = layout
tag.globals.page.render
end
end
Usage:
I have created layout named "master-index" with only one line in it:
<r:gsession:design full="full-index" light="light-index" />
With 2 arguments, which describes layout names for 'full' and 'light'
version of my site. You can define 'gsession_*design*' session
variable at
any time by hitting, for example:* /genie/set/design/light*
All my pages have selected 'master-index' layout.
That is all, while page is rendered my tag switches current layout to
'full-index' or 'light-index' named layouts.
Waiting for comments ... Thank you:)
Have you disabled caching to do this?

If all of your pages have the same layout at any time, make sure all
descendant pages have their layout set to <inherit> and then your
extension
could change the layout on the root page.
However, it would not be trivial to do this on a per-user basis.
Have you
considered something like a combination of Javascript and CSS that
lets your
users switch layouts?

Hi everybody!
I have a little question: how can I change page's layout from
within my
extension?
Problem is, that I have 2 different page layouts for my site: [
full-version
and light-version ].
I want to write a mini-extension to switch between designs of my
site
throw
hitting: /design/set/full and /design/set/light or /design/reset
And I'am saving current design variable in current user's session.
And now, just need to change current page's layout on the fly
accordingly
to
session value.
