Could this module possibly be extended to alter the site logo based on the author of the content being viewed? Or is there another way to possibly accomplish this?

I am using Blog Theme to allow users to choose a specific theme for displaying all content they contribute on my site, but would prefer for them to be able to upload and apply their own logo to said theme, as well.

I *could* do this... But... It's (obviously) not a simple add-on as it'd require a whole new user interface to allow users to upload via a browser (and view/ select their own logos). Sorry but I don't need this module to be anything more than a simple admin tool...

If you like though, it's very simple to hack the logo.php file to give you a simple similar effect? I could make it so that it'd display a logo derived from the uid of the user (eg. logo1.jpg, logo2.jpg) - let me know if this is acceptable?

Thanks,

Thanks much for the quick response. As long as logo.php could be hacked to display a logo based on the node author's uid, and not the uid of the logged-in user, I think that type of solution would probably work. The only problem I could foresee is that it must also work on the user's profile page, and their main blog page, which i guess don't have $node->uid's b/c they're not nodes.

Could you send me more details of how to accomplish the logo.php hack?

Hmmm... Over the weekend I've had a better idea... Give me a couple of hours and I'll see what I can do.

Thanks,

Sorry I've not got back to you, been (and still am) having problems with my own Drupal sites and I'm concentrating on fixing those first.

Closed due to me forgetting all about doing this and it was a year ago now...

...If you do still want this behavior perhaps I could still look into it? Just reopen this issue to let me know.

Thanks,
