   Hello there,

   first please excuse me if my question is trivial, but I'm quite new to Wordpress and I still have some doubts on it.

   I would like to setup a blog site with custom theme, but testing some available ones I noticed that all of them do not apply to Administration Panel (Dashboard), then my first question, why? I read that usually themes behave in this way, but suppose I want a multi-authors site, why when a user want to post something new has to experience a different look&feel?

   Anyway, is there a chance to submit a new post from outside the Administration Panel, from the homepage as an example?

   Many thanks in advance for your kind reply,

   Matteo

   Hi Michael,

   thanks for your quick reply. I will surely have a look at it, though I saw that is for WP 2.8 on, so I will have to upgrade my local test installation, first.

   May you also kindly answer to my first question, i.e. why the L&F is not consistent between Dashboard and the rest?

   Thanks, Matteo

   Well most themes don't attempt to change the admin portion of WordPress, probably too much work and too little need.

   But search for "wordpress admin themes" and you will find something you like.

   OK, your very kind, no words to thank you.

   A *final* little question: are you aware of good L&F consistent themes for Dashboard and the rest?

   Nope, but maybe someone else can jump in with a suggestion.
