Hi Greg, I don't think the theme.xml needs to be altered for that, it
would be redundant...the presence of multiple theme definitions
automatically should mean that both templates are active, based on their
<type/> element. Below is part of the theme.xml for the basic theme:
<template action="weblog">
<name>Weblog</name>
<description>weblog</description>
<link></link>
<navbar>false</navbar>
<hidden>true</hidden>
<templateCode>
<templateLanguage>velocity</templateLanguage>
<contentType>text/html</contentType>
<contentsFile>weblog.vm</contentsFile>
<type>standard</type>
</templateCode>
<templateCode>
<templateLanguage>velocity</templateLanguage>
<contentType>text/html</contentType>
<contentsFile>weblog-mobile.vm</contentsFile>
<type>mobile</type>
</templateCode>
</template>
By virtue of the fact that one <templateCode> has a type of "standard"
and the other has "mobile" means they're both active for their
respective types. If the person doesn't want mobile he can just
comment-out the latter <templateCode> definition, that should suffice I
think. Otherwise you're gonna have people uncomment the second
<templateCode/> and get confused why it isn't activating, forgetting
that they also forgot to add in a new
<useMobileTheme>true</useMobileTheme> element.
I think these edit programs use the YUI css tab. Are we sticking with YUI?
I think you mean the JSP pages that we use to edit blog entries
(EntryEdit.jsp for example), yes, I just noticed it uses YUI. YUI
should be fine, definitely for 5.1, if ain't broke don't fix it. Still,
I put in a JIRA (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ROL-2019) for us
to update our YUI library to a recent release of it (we're using a YUI
from 2009), as that YUI apparently is also used by themes wanting that
library, and I'd like theme customizers to have access to the latest and
greatest. Feel free to grab it if you wish.

What I could will do is add an element into the theme.xml to control
whether there is a second theme available for the templating engine, and
update the theme/stylesheet edit classes accordingly to not show the mobile
tab.

The mobile theme will switch automatically if you view with a mobile

Thanks, I did not realize that, and it would be nice for Roller to
architecturally maintain that functionality for users who would that
capability. I also like how its theme.xml shows how multiple themes can be
bundled together.
