13.4. Skin config file

For certain web sites, you may want particular categories or products to use a different skin to that of the main site. This allows you to create a completely separate look and feel for a part of your site selling a particular brand, for example. Or you may want to brand the site for a particular customer, so major customers have their own customized version of the site.

This can be done through a Skins.config file added into the /Skins folder. It looks something like this:


			
			<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
	<CustomerSkinRules>
		<Customer ID="123" SkinName="DifferentSkin"/>
	</CustomerSkinRules>
	<CustomerGroupSkinRules>
		<CustomerGroup ID="456" SkinName="AnotherSkin"/>
	</CustomerGroupSkinRules>
	<ProductSkinRules>
		<Product ID="789" SkinName="SkinNumber3"/>
	</ProductSkinRules>
	<CategorySkinRules>
		<Category ID="100" SkinName="BlackAndOrange"/>
	</CategorySkinRules>
	<ScriptSkinRules>
		<Script Name="Basket.aspx" SkinName="BasketSkin"/>
	</ScriptSkinRules>
</configuration>

You can add multiple tags into each section.

Note: The tags in the Skins.config are case sensitive. If settings are not working as expected, check the case of tags carefully to ensure tag names and values match those above.
