Though you have to use external plugins like Exec-PHP and paste the snippet mentioned above to text widget. I'm not sure if anybody is still stuck so I hope this works for you as it did for me. Wonderful plugin! This plugin should still work with the K2 Sidebar Manager. Though you have to use external plugins like Exec-PHP and paste the snippet mentioned above to text widget.

I’m not sure if anybody is still stuck so I hope this works for you as it did for me. Wonderful plugin!

I'm just now getting back into the swing of things, so a bit of patience is appreciated. Thanks :) So - about the newest WP and K2 versions... I have not yet tested the Style Switcher with WP 2.3 - or with the newest K2 version. I use Fantastico and have not yet been prompted to upgrade my WP. I suppose I could install both manually on some subdirectory and see what happens. Off the top of my head, I'd have to say all the new fangled K2 sidebar technology is interfering with the normal operation of the Switcher. Then again, could just be the new WP - which, as I've said, I haven't taken for a test drive at all... In short, I need to do some testing. After I do some reading about exactly what these newest versions entail. The plugin is fairly simple though. Good solid PHP calls, nothing fancy. What's probably happened is that either WP or K2 deprecated one of the hooks I'm using to call one or the other of them. More than likely K2, as I don't call WP much. (I've noted the absence of the footer styling in recent K2 versions, for instance - although that shouldn't really affect the Switcher much.) Once I find the old hook and replace it, everything should be up and running again. Shouldn't take too long, but I'll keep you posted :) @Bundy: (I sincerely apologize for this extremely late reply.) The Switcher was designed to do what you're asking for out of the box - so I assume that the K2 version which started causing problems was released fairly close to when you posted this question. Of course, on my personal site I'm using K2 Beta Two svn - so maybe not. I'm also using WP 2.2 - actually looks like I upgraded on this site as well. So I guess we're back to, it's got to be the newest versions of everything causing the glitches. Let me see what I can do... I’ve been AWOL for a bit, as I had *a lot* going on.

So - about the newest WP and K2 versions…

I'm currently running WP 2.3 with K2.0 RC2. I tried it and it doesn't detect my K2. Is this because of the new K2 versions or something? Can you advise me where to do the changes so it is compatible with K2.0 RC2 (Newest version) http://www.windstarfire.net Cheers, and happy WP'ing! Hi there!

I want my visitors, to change the k2 scheme, if they want. Is it possible, to store the selected options in a cookie, and when they come back, they see their style? I also want to localize this script into Hungarian, because it is very useful. Please provide me some info about, if it can use cookies, or how shoud I make it to remember visitors choice. Sorry for my language mistakes, thanks. Bundy Hello!

You seem to have some other javascript errors going on though, as I get 2 "404" popups every time I load your page. Just an FYI, as I don't think its the Style Switcher. I hadn't clicked on either link when I got the error. As far as the graphical option goes, I should have a beta for you to test in a couple of days. I'll email it directly to you when it's ready, as I won't release it until I'm sure it's working. I’ve tried the switcher, it seems to be working well.

Make a new PHP module, then put this in the "Module's code:" area: <code><?php k2ss_sidebar(); ?></code> That's it. No special configuration required. If that's not working for you, please let me know, as something is seriously wrong. Although to the best of my knowledge, the 3K2 theme just relies heavily on the Sidebar Modules plugin, so it shouldn't be experiencing any conflicts. So you'd like to have a *specific* graphic for each style? Wow. O_o That's going to take a bit of tweaking, but it's fairly easy to do. Just somewhat time-consuming. Give me a few days?
