In short : This plugin adds a dropdown list in the frontend to allow visitors to choose a different stylesheet.
Detailed :
Sometimes, we just want to offer visitors simple variations of our website theme. Sometimes, we simply want to offer a stylesheet with improved accessbility. There are plugins that let you choose a different theme, but this plugin offers you to change only the stylesheet. In the admin settings, you can configure up to 5 different stylesheets. Those possibilities are offered in a dropdown list on the front page.
The dropdown list can be put in a widget or in a page/post using the shortcode, or directly in the template using the php function.
On the frontend, when a choice is made in the dropdown list, the webpage is reload using the chosen stylesheet.
Features
* Easy installation/setup
* Up to 5 different stylesheets
* Set a default stylesheet
* Set the label for the dropdown list
* Can be used with a shortcode in a post/page, as a widget and with a php function in the theme
* Multiple instances of the dropdown list can be present on the same page.

Why this plugin?
I couldn’t find this solution in other plugin, so I developped it. This plugin is useful when developping a website, so we can keep a few alternative stylesheet and switch back and forth, or let a client chose his favorite one.
How do you setup the css files for a child theme
In my child theme folder, my style.css file only contains the link to the original theme css: @import url(“../twentythirteen/style.css”);
Then my other files only need to override the original styles.
