== Assigning More Than One Template Style for the Frontend == <!--T:6-->
</translate>
<translate><!--T:7-->
Joomla gives you the option of switching between two or more styles on the Frontend. This is done with "Menu Assignment", so you can set different styles for each menu or only a menu item. This allows specific "pages" that are defined by menu links to set for a "specific" style. Styles can be of different templates.</translate>
