user theme variable?

[wbdstaff]

Hi! I'm looking to display what theme a user is using on the mini profile, but have not been able to figure out the correct $[xxx] in order to draw that information from each user's settings. Anyone know what should go there instead of 'user.theme.id'?

<tr><td style="padding: 2px; width: 80px;">
   <div id="mf">theme: $[user.theme_id]</div>

So, for context, the only variables you can use on any given template* are the variables that appear in the variable tree on the right. If you look at the tree in the mini-profile template and expand "user", there are no variables for any theme elements. In short, that means you can't use variables to display the user's theme selection in the mini-profile.

Luckily, someone already created a plugin to do this instead: www.proboards.com/library/plugins/item/1241
Support thread for that plugin (reading the OP will help with some additional info): support.proboards.com/thread/574009/?

You can then target whatever element it adds in via CSS and style it in the manner of your choosing.
