Hello,
Is it possible to offer my users ability to choose their acitive skin? For example, I have 2 active skins: Skin A and Skin B . I want to give my users abiity to choose which type of site (which skin) they want to use.

Regards,
Peter

Hi Peter
Checkout the 'Profile Tweaks' module - https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/modules/2910/profile-tweaks

With that users can choose different profile skins.
Note that this is only at a profile level. The main site pages remain at the skin you have selected for it.
Hope that helps
Paul

ok, so is it possible to add...skin IN skin? for example two types of mainpage etc.? or I must install two times same site and offer two subdomains, first using skin A and second skin B ? I need to use SAME database with types of site. Any option how to do this ? ;)

Not sure what "skin IN skin" means exactly, what the Profile Tweaks module does is it allows the you to let your profiles choose what skin they have on THEIR profile.

Ok, but I'm thinking not only about profile, but about activate OTHER skin overall on site for each user. For example one user want to use Follow Me, other - Audio Pro. Is it possible to do or someone could prepare for me this module? I can pay, no problem.

So you want your logged in users to be able to switch which skin the see the overall site in?
Not sure that this is possible, but please confirm that this is what you want so that I can answer one way or the other.
Thanks

Are you sure you understand how jamroom skins work? A skin is not just the colors. If you had a conversation between the user who is looking at Follow Me and the other user who is looking at Audio Pro they would not understand each other.

For the Follow Me guy the top page of the site is a social sharing timeline with posts and comments, while audio pro is all the audio of the site. Both on the same URL. Seams like you would run into many problems even if technically possible to do.

Hi - We've investigated this and unfortunately, its not something that's easily supported due to how "integrated" the active skin is in the core code of Jamroom.
Sorry

Oops, bad news for me, but thanks for investigating of course and I think would be great, if this will be "doable" soon by any plugin or something like this.
