Drupal Admin Theme Issue
jagdot - April 18, 2008 - 21:59
I wave two drupal sites. .com and the other is beta.com The .com site is simply a sign up site for the beta when it launches. Earlier this week, I was in admin area of .com and changed the admin theme away from garland and switched it to a custom theme which is actually the site theme. No I've lost the ability to change it back because when I log in I am taken to the site theme which does not have any admin options. Is this something that can be recovered without using the backup?
Thank you.

try pointing your browser to yoursite.com/admin/build/themes

Tried it.
Thank you. I tried but I am taken to the site.com homepage which is the theme.

then you will have to go into your DB manually and set that theme to 0 which will turn it off.
the only other possibility would be to delete the theme folder from the server which would give you a themeless site to navigate until you got back to the admin/build/themes area
also note that unless you are using clean urls, the path above and in the last comment would need to be dirty ?q=/admin/build/themes

Turning the theme off by setting it to 0 sounds like a great idea. I don't have the slightest idea how to do this which is why I posted in the drupal services for hire. Is this something that you are able to do for hire?

so bet it, moved the thread back into the paid services forum.

no need set db manually
hi chuck
you can set theme default easily using your settings.php
go to your settings.php which is located at [yourdrupalfolder]/sites/default/settings.php
put this at the bottom of settings .php
$conf['theme_default'] = 'garland';$conf['admin_theme'] = 'garland';
it will change your default site as garland, and then you have to go to your drupal site
set permantent your default administration theme as garland
which is located at http://[yourdrupalsite]/admin/settings/admin
