If this feature were to work with flexinodes we could finally have a convenient way to theme different content consistently. Sections (not yet officially released for 4.6 but workable if patched) requires specification of the path to be themed so one has to frequently update the path list as the site grows.

I don't actually use blogs on my production sites so i'll try this on a test site but if it worked for other types of content I think it would be great.

flexinodes is no longer in use with Drupal 5.
People use CCK, nowadays.

Can you update the request description and provide more information on what's required?

I haven't tried it with newly created content types yet but sections module will apply theme based on php snippet returning TRUE or FALSE, the result i was looking for at the time. This is a bit of a step backward from 4.6 when you could control the theme applied to a section based on checkboxes of content type. if you you could apply themes based on the contnet type with a simple checkbox insted of having to write (or copy) a php snippet and define the content types to which is applies that would be a much friendlier interface.

I am not sure I will implement this. I don't want to duplicate functionality from other modules. I'll check later.

The feature to have different theme per user, including different node types (not only blog) has just been implemented. Check the next release of the module.

If you meant to have a different theme per node type, regardless of the author, then I'm afraid it's beyond the scope of this module. I am certain that there is another module that allows you to have different theme per node type.
