Having Meta Tags enabled seems to break the administration theme when editing a page. Instead of displaying the page displayed with the admin theme, the default theme is displayed.

My setup:

Admin Theme = Garland
Default Theme = a custom theme

Disabling Meta Tags fixed the issue.

I have a similar problem, but the admin interface doesn´t work, nothing is displayed. My admin and default themes are set the same Bluemarine.
Please some ideas?

I cannot confirm that so there are no ideas.
Could you provide a list of your active modules?

having same problem and issue here too..
I can confirm lc9er's and egarias' statements.
When I disable meta tags, admin theme works perfectly.
Tried to disable/enable some variation of modules, but it seems that nodewords seems to be the cause of the problem.

Title: Meta Tags module breaks administration theme » Meta Tags module breaks administration theme, themekey

I am using the themekey module to change theme dependent on path. When I enable Meta Tags, the themes do not change at all. Disabling Meta Tags resolves the issues. Incidentally, If I edit a node and add Meta Tags via this modules interface, and save the node, the theme appears as it should.

So it would seem Meta Tags breaks Themekey unless node has tags attached to it.

Happy to test patches and help where I can, and can provide more info if required.

The following solved my issues:

Uncheck the 'Use the teaser of the page if the meta description is not set.' checkbox in admin/content/nodewords
#242412: Conflict with administration theme

I have not changed the status of this issue to fixed as I do not know whether this is a 'fix' or not. Ideally I would like to use the teaser if there is no description set, but this will suffice in the interim.

Version: 6.x-1.0-rc1 » 6.x-1.0

I had a similar problem - my Acquia Marina theme was disabled on nodes after installing the meta tags module. The Acquia Marina is activated through Organic Groups. Disabling the teaser feature put the correct theme back.

This is a duplicate of #242412: Conflict with administration theme. It was even referring to the same version, before the last metadata change.
