From the developer
CyanSmoker's own description of Page Theme, lightly tidied.
- Keep updated! http://nexus.zteo.com/
- This plugin can be used to display a different theme for each page of your blog.
- This plugin can be used to display a different theme for each one of your blog posts.
- The interface used to configure this is very user-friendly. Even friendlier since v1.3.
- Many thanks to Stephen Carroll whose domain page’s script motivated me to write this plugin.
- Thanks also go to emposha.com for their image selection script, which I shamelessly hacked and surely made worse.
Limitations
- Due to WordPress selecting themes and stylesheets very early on when building a page, I cannot use WordPress’ “official” way to detect the current page/post. Therefore, you may find that this plugin does not work correcly if your setup is extremely exotic. Contact me if this happens.
