Hi,
Probably a newbie question, but I have a screen I have created that uses 

theme('table', $header, $rows);
theme('pager', NULL, 25, 0);
print theme('page', $output);

I use the theme role switcher to set a specific role to a specific theme. But for some reason, the theme my table is displayed in is the default theme.

When I inspect $user->theme and $custom_theme the values are not set.

If I make a call to 

role_theme_switcher_init();

at the begining of the function all is well, the values are set... but I am guessing that this is not the right "drupal" thing to do.

What is the right way to get the theme switcher to work?
thanks,

Hello Ozecho,

I would suppose two things:

1. Probably you do have "admin theme" setting enabled, and you are browsing site as admin
------
The setting Home->Administer->Site configuration->Administration theme "Use administration theme for content editing" - if it is enabled, this setting overwrites the Role_Theme_Switcher behavior. So probably you would like to disable "Use administration theme for content editing" setting.
Role_Theme_Switcher consciously do not overwrite "Use administration theme for content editing" - if something can be done via Drupal interface just disabling the checkbox, it should be done there.
----------------

2. Perhaps your module have lower weight than role_theme_switcher, therefore when your module is being loaded, there's no role_theme_switcher loaded yet.
BTW, your code, is it a module code, or a template code?

Please let me know if this information brought any light, and thank you for the feedback

Respectfully,
Serj Tiutiun
