You don't have to be stuck with one template per menu item! Chameleon gives easy controls to switch template and turn individual menu items on and off according to:

* Language (front-end/browser)
* Browser (IE v6, FF, iPhone, iPad etc)
* Page type (article, front page, search results, etc)
* Virtuemart page types, cart contents, categories & coupon usage
* Date, time, and time of day
* User id and group, logged-in and logged-out users
* Article id, section and category
* Component
* Domain / sub-domain of your site
* Page URL and HTTP referrer
* Random probability
* GeoIP detection of the guest's city/country
* All "children" of a given menu or menu item
* Anything else you can detect with a snippet of PHP.

As a result of any "rule" you can perform these actions for the current page:

- set the template/style
- dynamically "unpublish" menu items
- set the "default" Joomla page (site home page)
- set which menu item will be highlighted as "Active"
- do an internal or external redirection
- set metadata, page title, and add JS/CSS
- run PHP code

Examples of use:

* Use a different template and change some menu items for logged-in users and guests
* Use a different template just for IE users
* Use a different template if your site is embedded in FaceBook
* Do A/B testing of two different templates, based on random probability. Use different Google Analytics on each template, then compare the performance.
* Use different templates for uk.domain.com and us.domain.com

Chameleon for Joomla 1.5 also contains a template duplicator. With 1 click you can duplicate any installed template directly on your site - great for making backup copies of your templates before altering them, or allowing you to use slightly altered copies of the same template on different pages.

Chameleon plays nicely with front-end template switching modules such as Template Chooser and Template Switcher.
