You may install multiple instances of the Explorer theme.

Why should one want to do that?

You may want to offer the user different settings of the theme. E.g. you may want to let the user choose if he wants to use the theme in desktop or site mode.

How can you do that?

Put a copy of the explorer.py with a different name (e.g. explorersite.py) in the same plugin/theme folder. Than use <name>_<configuration option> to configure the new instance. Any option starting with "explorer" can be set replacing the "explorer" prefix by the new instance name.

Example

If you use explorersite.py as the name of the new theme instance than the following configuration options in wikiconfig.py forces site mode for this theme instance and desktop mode for the "normal" theme instance (explorer.py).

    explorer_site_mode = False
    explorersite_site_mode = True

Now the user can set his theme preference to explorer or explorersite which displays the wiki in desktop resp. site mode.
