Customizing admin CSS

  • I want to add some CSS code to the admin theme.
    If the color scheme is FRESH then i want to add some style. If not i want to use another CSS file.

    When doing a print_r($layout); it says classic ( i use that) but it adds the dark.css file.
    What am i doing wrong?

    function css_admin_head() {
	global $user_ID;
	$layout = get_user_meta($user_ID, 'admin_color', true);
		if ($layout = 'fresh') {
			echo '<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="' .plugins_url('dark.css', __FILE__). '">';
			}
		else {
			echo '<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="' .plugins_url('light.css', __FILE__). '">';
			}
}

add_action('admin_head', 'css_admin_head');

    When doing a print_r($layout); it says classic ( i use that)

    What’s the full output?

    This is the full output:
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://blogurl.net/wp-content/plugins/admin-theme/dark.css">

    And the print_r($layout); prints “classic” thats it.

    and if i enable the fresh layout on my user profile it prints “fresh”. So that works.

    i think my “error” is: if ($layout = ‘fresh’)
    But i dont know what to type here.

    your “error” is: if ($layout = ‘fresh’)

    try:
    if ($layout == 'fresh')

    PHP and JavaScript behave similarly:
