Getting current theme in xml

[Scareface]

Hey guys how to get the current theme folder used by the user into the package-info.xml, so that the image files are always store in the current theme folder ?

AFAIK you can't. But if you choose to copy the files to $themedir/images, PackMan will allow to copy them to every installed theme.

Oh alright, I guess then I have to force the images to be in default directory.

And just to add, it's actually a good idea to use $settings['default_theme_url'] (sorry, not sure if this is the correct variable name) and not the current theme, *unless* you want to have different images for different themes. You can reduce the duplicate files and, maintenance wise, the fewer the options/locations/files/etc, the better.

Oh okay, I changed $themedir to $settings['default_theme_url'], It seems to work. I have changed it in mod
