Okay, so you can create multiple copies of the side bar skin in the same folder and name them accordingly, e.g. games.ini, study.ini, work.ini, entertainment.ini etc.

Then change their content to what you want. Text= and LeftMouseUpAction= are the ones you are looking for.

Then in the icons, I assume you are referencing to the ones on the middle of desktop, change LeftMouseUpAction=[!ToggleConfig "Config" "filename"], config is the skin folder name, e.g. in illustro, the clock skin has config "illustro\Clock" and file name should be the one you want to activate, e.g. games.ini, stydy.ini etc. In illistro clock, file name is "Clock.ini".

Well, if you want us to change things, post the codes for one button and the sidebar here. I don't want to install that skin cause it looks kinda fishy to me.

I use this: [!ActivateConfig "RM\OcenVUMetre"]
RM = Suite folder
OcenVUMetre = Skin folder

To see this in action, try this:
Launcher_1.rmskin
When it loads, you have a choice of two skins. Load either and Left click the right most button, NOTE: the button isn't visible, but it is there. Just hover over it to see it. Left click that button no matter which skin you load. It will tell Rainmeter to load the other config that is in that same folder.

Might not be what you're trying to achieve, but there it is :D

Hope that helps. :D

Thank you for understanding.

Right click on it and click on unload

If nothing happens on right click, hold ctrl while clicking.
