Templatic.com Theme Pages

    Hello. This sounds like a great plugin to have and hoping it may be a solution. Recently purchased theme from Templatic.com for a directory type site. Templatic.com offers functionality that is tied to their theme. The functionalities do not work when switching to a different theme. This is also the case when wanting to switch to a different theme when using a mobile device, especially since on a mobile device there are “touch” events or want to use mobile camera, access contacts etc.

    Wondering if this will be a good solution to be able to use functionality of templatic.com theme on a different theme when viewing within an a mobile app that uses a different theme?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated..
    Pete

    Because of the complexity involved in the scenario you describe, I think the most reliable solution will be a WordPress Network, also known as Multisite.

    With a little effort on the menus, you can create two WordPress Sites, one for each Theme, but make them look like a single website. Typically, using the Subdirectory option of Network Setup. For example, Site 1 would be example.com and Site 2 would be example.com/news/

    My plugin has no built-in capabilities to detect Mobile devices, and it is not an area I’m contemplating supporting, mainly because Caching becomes an issue when you try to display two different Themes on the same URL.

    In general, complex issues are going to run into the fact that WordPress was not designed with multiple themes (on a single Site) in mind, and my plugin can only do so much.
