Please advice: where drupal stores info about current active themes? Which table?
I upgraded Drupal, and when I enter admin area I have white screen of death. IMHO custom theme is causing that issue, could somebody help me?
Regards
The current theme globally set a Drupal site is saved in the variable theme_default. If users are then allowed to change theme, the theme they chose is saved in the users table; in that case, if you have selected a theme that is different from the default one for your account, you need to change the user data for your account directly in the database.
Looking at the reply you have given in the other answers, I wonder if the problem is really the theme. To be sure it is the theme, you should try setting another theme.
If you set a admin theme that is not the default theme used for the site, and the problem is the admin theme, you can disable it in the database; in that way, that theme is not anymore used as admin theme, and the default theme will be instead used. The database table containing the theme enabled for the site is system.
If you think the problem is being caused by a custom theme, you can just move it out from the themes or sites/all/themes directory.

I want to change this liferay logo to one of my own. How do i do it? I do not want to create a new theme, but make changes in the existing WELCOME theme of liferay.
Just put your custom favicon.ico file in the docroot/_diffs/images folder of your theme, if you are working on one.
If you’re not then create one using classic as the parent theme so you don’t need to customize it in any way to have the standard look and feel.
We set up the SharePoint 12 hive folder for a custom theme with a new xml entry and folder.
Is everything required for a custom theme living in the theme folder? I'm asking because we are seeing CSS files that appear to be dynamically named rendered on SharePoint pages in the folder that are not actually in the folder.
Will we have to use SPD and custom site changes to get a custom theme to work?
I've got a designer working only in the theme folder, but he is seeing rendered css that he can't get to. He is not using SPD
That 1011-65001 squence file is found nowhere? what is that an where can I find it. Any way to have my custom theme all hard fixed name css files in that folder without using SPD?
/_themes/MYNEWFOLDER/MYNEWTHEME1011-65001.css?rev=12%2E0%2E0%2E6421
===
Update: I just realzed that css is creatd when I apply the theme and so it's in my _themes site folder. But now, when I attempt to re-apply the theme, that was working before, now i get a write error on _themes.
I can answer your first query why its dyanamic name this is because themes which you installed are ghosted version and when you apply them an unghosted version is created for the specific site where it is applied. so a dyanamic naming is required and it cannot be hard coded in MOSS even if you try using SPD you can do it but you have to remove the theming then.
the same you have also have notified in update that the css name is changed only when you apply it.
regarding your second issue of reapplying it did you try applying another them and then back to first one and is giving error then please check the 12 hive logs it will give you cause of failure and if still you are not able to figure out the same plz share the relavent log here we will try to help you
I am using a custom theme for the front end of my drupal website.I created it by modifying garland theme.And I am using garland as the admin theme.
When I try to edit a page from admin it shows the edit page with my custom theme (http://example.com/node/2/edit?destination=admin%2Fcontent%2Fnode). And It breaks up the layout.
I want to show the admin theme for all the admin tasks. This problem also occurs on the blocks page (http://example.com/admin/build/block).
Is there any custom module or core hack to show admin theme when editing pages.
If you want to use admin theme by non-admin users you must give permissions to that user: Permitions->System->View the administration theme
Be sure that you check the option in the page example.com/admin/settings/admin
To get the admin theme showing for non-admin users, I went to admin/people/permissions/list and checked the "View the administration theme" box for all roles.
Sounds simple except that the Filter list wasn't showing that entry when I typed theme, so it took me awhile to find it. Finally I used the browser find to find all instances of the word "theme".
Or, you could type "System" in the Filter list to show only a few options in the relevant category.
You can use admin theme module, download and install it , the go to permission in dmin/people/permissions then in Administration theme set permission to waht user you want by checking Access administration theme.
Then goto http://chapboo.com/admin/appearance in bottom of the page in custom page add
admin/*
node/add/*
node/*/edit
and finally clear the cache
You have to check the checkbox under:
exemple.com/admin/appearance
I've downloaded Drupal 6 and installed it on my local server, and ported a basic web site as a custom theme. I've set this as the default theme and everything works okay; the page appears nice with all the images and layout.
The problem is that now, no matter what I type as the URL I always get to my page. So how can I go to the admin page? /q=user does not work. I can change the theme from the database but that is not what I want. I just want to keep this theme and be able to access all the Drupal functionality.
For the custom page i've created the page.tpl.php and .info file. Along with the CSS file I've put them all in a new folder in the themes directory.
#abhaga's answer is spot on - you've turned the entire site's theme into a single page's HTML, so they're all going to be the same.
If you'd like to avoid glitching the admin side of things with a bad template file, you can set one of the core themes as your "administration theme" (in Site Configuration) - that way, the admin backend will always use that theme regardless of the other templates.
Ah! Basically page.tpl.php specifies the over all structure of site. Look at the original page.tpl.php file - it will be printing a variable called $content somewhere. That is the variable holding all the content of your specific page. You will need to print it at appropriate place in your pge.tpl.php

Hope this is the right place to ask this question. I am new to the forum (and to Drupal!).
I am developing a site using Drupal. Am using Zenophile Midnight and have created a Zen sub Theme. This has three columns, each with a black background.
I am trying to edit a View but when I open the views/edit node I find when I try to create a Filter the text does not show (presumably because it is black). How can I change this just for these pages and not for the whole site? I know the text is there as I can mark it by dragging over it.
Would be grateful for your help.
If you log in as the administrator of the site and select Administer > Site Configuration > Administration Theme there you can change the theme that is used for site administration. This does not affect the theme used by the site for the public view of the site.
You can select the default Garland theme for administration and your custom theme can be applied to the rest of the site.
