This title could be little bit confusing.
What I want is : if my user use a PC to browse my site, it switch to a theme that I want which is better for PC, and if they browse it from mobile devices, it switch to a mobile friendly theme.
Can this be possible?

Kieron,
I don't think this is a complicated problem, oxwall can already recognize different devices if you enable the mobile mod. Maybe there is a way to rewrite the "mobile" file under a existing theme to do that?

Disable site mobile version at: your-site/admin/mobile/settings and use a responsive theme from the store selection at: http://www.oxwall.org/store/list/theme/tagged/responsive

I want a website which contain two different theme for different devices...
I already bought a very perfect theme (Not responsive) and I have another theme which is responsive.
I'm asking if there are any ways to make them work separately for different devices.

You can't upload a desktop theme to the mobile theme folder..Is is possible to add a if statement (I'm not very good at programming) to the theme file to decide which CSS will it use? Can it works?

Chris_W,
@Chris_W I'm thinking his goal is to have 2 separate themes, the no-responsive for desktop version then have the system auto detect when a mobile device is detected and use a responsive theme for this.
Seems like he's making thing more difficult than they need to be. If he can find a responsive theme he likes, I can't think of a reason not to use it for both. What would be the reason for not using a responsive theme for PC users?
I just want to bring better experience to my user.. and by the way, I already bought an very perfect NO-Responsive theme. I'm still a student so I don't really want to afford another one... And I don't really like those responsive theme design because for mobile it looks great but for PC might too simple...

I know that this thread is old, but did you FrankZ get a solution to this problem?
Or anyone has how to define a theme to be used by the mobile version and another for the desktop version. Since the PWA it has even more sense to have a different theme for the mobile edition.

I don't think recommending Aron plugins is a good idea.
The forum is full of complaints from this developer to the point that he was expelled, go to his profile and you will check.
What makes no sense is that your plugins are still for sale.
I think that the manager of the OxWall store should eliminate them from the sale or at least give a warning that "you are buying a plugin whose developer ..."

This plugin is ok. I install and work fine. Not all Aron”s plugins is ok, but this plugin is good. I tested.
