I have this situation:

main site theme:
- node.tpl
- node-foo.tpl

context switched theme:
- node.tpl
- node-bar.tpl

The context is set to switch nodes of type bar to the 2nd theme.

However, node-bar.tpl is not picked up.

The workaround is to put a node-bar.tpl in the main theme folder.

Correction -- the node-bar.tpl is the 2nd theme is never picked up.

The one in the main theme is, even though the site is shown in the 2nd theme.

This has come up in other issues in the queue... unfortunately, it's a bug in Context, not in this plugin. I hate to say it, but I think the only two Context conditions that will work with this plugin are 'sitewide' and 'path'. If you still want this functionality, I recommend using Pathauto to give each node type its own distinct path (/content/blogposts/*** or something) and then use the path condition... it's a little hackish, but it works well for a lot of people. Pray for fixes to Context 3 and Drupal 7!

Do you have a link for that?

This really should be added to the docs and mentioned in the UI when you pick this as a reaction!
