Plone 2.5 does not allow to change skins

[aiste]

Users cannot change the plone skin, though that preference is enabled and visible in the user preferences page.

When a user goes there and changes the skin, clicks on save, he gets the following messages after the page reloads:

'You have been registered.' 'Your personal settings have been saved.'

But the skin is back to the default.

I can change the skin globally, i.e. through Site setup. The only user that can change the skin through the user preferences page is the one that is defined through zcml.

It's a plone 2.5.1 instance, on zope 2.9.3, python 2.4.3 running on Gentoo.

Either we should fix this, or remove the option for skins-per-user.

This must be due to some PAS related changes assigning to wiggy (sorry). Can somebody verify this?

[alecm]

This can almost certainly be fixed without too much work, but I can't do it for 2.5.2, wiggy?

The culprit: updateSkinCookie in CMFCore's SkinTool tries to look up member.portal_skin instead of member.getProperty('portalSkin').

[sirgarr]

Sorry, member.getProperty('portal_skin')

Also something that should be easy to include in 2.5.3, I'd apply it, but I want somebody else to verify that it's sane.
