CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Not sure where to put this post on the forums, so I'll put it here...

We want to switch to a particular Drupal theme for just one particular civicrm event. This means for the event info page, the event registration page, the confirmation page for the event, etc.

Drupal 7 comes with a lovely little hook called hook_custom_theme() which allows us to swap themes for particular pages according to arbitrary conditions, so I initially had a go at it like this (the event id is 8 in this case):

function tidbits_custom_theme() {
  if (strpos($_GET['q'], 'civicrm/event') !== FALSE && $_GET['id'] == 8 ) { 
      return 'our_custom_theme';
  }
}

And this works for the event info and register pages. But subsequent to that, civicrm switches the url to no longer inclue the event id in the query string, and instead uses a ghastly guickform key. I hopefully checked the POST parameters as well, hoping that that the event id may have been submitted as a hidden field, but also no luck. Without this id value, I can no longer identify which event the current page relates to.

Does anyone know how I can identify from within this hook whether I am currently on an event pages belonging to event id x?

I'm back on this issue: still trying to set change the theme for a single set of event registration pages.

The issue is not how to *change* the theme, but how to recognise when we're on a page for a particular event. As I mentioned in the original post here, it's easy enough to pull the event id from the GET query on the first page, but all subsequent pages don't have this id available. Last time, I discovered the id moved into the $_SESSION array on the subsequent pages, but now a few months down the track and a civicrm update appears to have changed that behaviour.

How can I recognise that I'm on a particular set of event registration pages? Where can I learn the event ID?

If it helps, this is the global info I *do* have available to me:
