Yes and no. You can load a raw CSS string into the header programatically, but you can’t use wp_enqueue_style() to enqueue it. That function specifically loads files into the header in <link> tags. But what you can do is something like this: function print_inline_script() { ?> <style type=”text/css”> /* … styles go here … */ … Read more

Also hooking into the actual page template dropdown would very likely be problematic (I doubt it would work without some serious hacking around). You’re better off just writing your own meta box dropdown. I think your on the the … Read more
I am lazy to write supporting logic from scratch so I am reusing functions from linked answer on branches: /** * Retrieve IDs of posts in branch of menu. * * @param mixed $menu * @param string $branch_title * * @link http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/2802/display-a-portion-branch-of-the-menu-tree-using-wp-nav-menu * * @return array */ function get_post_ids_from_menu_branch( $menu, $branch_title ) { $menu_object = … Read more
One way is to have a single front-page.php and then using get_template_part(), to show different content based on user choice. Rough code: get_header(); $layout = get_option( ‘front_page_layout’, ‘default’ ); get_template_part( ‘front-page’, $layout ); get_footer(); After that you need to create a file for every layout, they should be called, something like: front-page-one.php front-page-two.php front-page-three.php front-page-default.php … Read more
