Description
Sorry if I may seem ignorant here, but what is the difference between this module and taxonomy theme module? Which also changes themes based on taxonomy terms. This module requires views module while taxonomy theme does not require any contrib modules.
I'am confused..hmm
#1
Relative advantages of taxonomy_theme.module:
* There is no need to create views, which can be complicated.
* Change the theme for any kind of page through the Extended mode, not just pages like node/123.
Relative advantages of viewstheme.module:
* Use more node attributes (e.g. author or number of comments) when deciding which theme to use.
* Use any combination of the node attributes.
* If a node could be themed several ways, give priority to one way over the others.
The views.module is used a lot, so many people already have it installed.
