Hi,

We've structured our SS projects so that all project specific configuration goes into _ss_environment.php, leaving _config.php to be as generic as possible, so that we can include it in our SS project boilerplate.

One thing that unfortunately is project specific is the call to SSViewer::set_theme(). From our reading of the forums, we get the impression that it is recommended to set a default theme programmatically, so we'd like to do that somewhere.

The question is where can we do this (preferably somewhere project-specific like _ss_environment.php) and outside of _config.php.

Is what we're doing here, OK... we define a constant in ss_environment.php that is then used in the _config.php's SSViewer::set_theme call. Eg...

_ss_environment.php

    ...
    define('SS_PROJ_DEFAULT_THEME', 'MyDefaultTheme');
    ...

_config.php

    ...
    SSViewer::set_theme(SS_PROJ_DEFAULT_THEME);
    ...

Seems to work well. Sounds OK?

Thanks for your input.

This is perfectly fine. The reason you cannot use SSViewer::set_theme() in your environment is that the class isn't loaded but a constant is perfectly valid to be used.

Thanks Will - appreciate your response very much.
