What Does This Hack Do?
This hack allows you to force a style to certain usergroup(s), secondary usergroup(s), and/or certain user(s).
Background
This is inspired by the hack - Restrict Style to Usergroup(s) by Andreas.
I asked about a mod to restrict styles to certain usergroups and ended up using Andreas's hack, but did not do the job exactly as I need it, see scenario below to see why did not.
Scenario
The setup on my forums is that I use the default style as the parent to all my other styles which makes modifying the templates easy for me, I wanted to use a child style as the standard style for visitors and members, but not have them have a choice of the default template at all, but as soon as you logged out you were presented with the default template that you did not want guests to see.
Solution
I created this hack to rectify that and it works in harmony with Andreas's hack.
