[Radiant] Changing page layout on-the-fly?
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.

Re: [Radiant] Changing page layout on-the-fly?
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?
