NAME

Maplat::Web::Themes - add theming support to your project

SYNOPSIS

Add pre-configures themes to your Maplat project.

DESCRIPTION

This module overrides the layout template configured in the TemplateCache module. It also adds a simple webmask, so each user can select his/her prefered theme.

Configuration is saved on a per-user basis through the usersettings-module. The default-theme is the first one configured. This overrides the default layout configured in the TemplateCache module.
