I am using Umbraco 7.1 with Asp.Net MVC 4. I have got a requirement to change the theme of the site dynamically. Is there any builtin support to perform the functionality using umbraco skins ? If yes how can i acheive this (any video tutorials on umbraco TV for that).
Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated.
If you want the Umbraco editor users to be able to select a css style sheet for use on a page (or set of pages) as a "theme" then you'd just build this logic into your template from a dropdown - probably a good idea to have this value inherit from the parent.
I might have misundestood your question and if you want ot theme Umbraco then the links Alex has posted are the way to go (assuming you have umbraco v6) - not sure it's possible in V7.

Hi Haider,
You can create few templates for root node or create new skin.

Do you mean the theme of the front end site?
This is a CSS / JS task if that's what you want - simple demo here: http://www.qualitycodes.com/tipdemos/javascript/dynamic-css/# This allows website visitors to change CSS style sheet.
