Seperate Admin Theme
February 23, 2009, 02:28:57 pm
I searched the forums but could not find an answer. Is there a way I can force CiviCRM to use the default Drupal theme when you are visiting "Administer CiviCRM"

We're using a custom theme for Drupal. However, CiviCRM is too wide for the layout. Is there a way that I can force CiviCRM to use the default drupal theme?

CiviCRM Theme looks good - I will have to investigate.

You may also want to have a look at the drupal module sections http://drupal.org/project/sections which allows you to set different themes based on user privileges and the URL.

Setting Garland up for all pages with CiviCRM in the title gets you 90% of the way there.  However, it will also set Garland for any profile pages.
Setting Garland to only be available to people with the administrate CiviCRM problem gets you 99% of the way there.  The only hitch with this is that admins see Garland when they are logged in and visit public profile pages (hardly a biggie).

Let us know how you get on :)

CiviCRM Theme is really helpful. Otherwise I had to explain my CiviCRM users how to switch themes in their profile - now I do not need to do so :)
