themes.php current theme always default
-
The admin page at themes.php always shows the current theme as the default theme. The blog itself shows whatever theme I select.
This started when I upgraded to 2.5.
I am hesitant to try to fix this myself. My assumption is that the database entry for the current theme changed in 2.5. The symptoms point toward themes.php reading back the current theme from someplace different than where it wrote it.
But if this were the case others would have noticed the problem too.
The only way I can switch back to the default theme is to rename the current theme directory. This results in a blank main page, but if I go directly to the admin panel it tells me the theme is broken and gives me the option to go back to the default theme. I am extremely uncomfortable with this.
I’ve tried several different themes, deactivating plug-ins, and sacrificing small appliances to the ‘Net God.
Any thoughts? I’m afraid to upgrade to 2.7.
