By default, Drupal uses the "main theme" for the main site, and the "admin theme" for the admin pages.

I want to use my "main theme" for the user/edit pages and node/edit & node/add pages of the "journal" content type only. For all other administration pages (including the node/edit & node/add pages of other content types) , I want to use the "admin theme".

How can I do this? In Theme Key there doesn't seem to be options to select node/edit & node add pages of a particular content type (or options to select user/edit pages).

you will need to create a hierarchical set up:

In this example set up, it checks for user:1 (admin), that the node type (content type) is article, and that the path meets the relevant criteria. You will need to adjust accordingly. Simply drag and drop the sub-elements into place.

  • Do I disable the admin theme at admin/appearance? If I do, then how do I get the admin theme (Seven) to apply to the admin pages (with the exception of journal and users)? If I do not turn it off, then do I uncheck the box for "Use the administration theme when editing or creating content". How do I get theme key to target the user pages? I have tried using wildcard path user/# but it doesn't seem to work. Also, is path_is_admin = True used for the admin pages? It seems to target all admin sections including user/edit and node/edit, which doesn't have "admin" in the path.

    thats a lot of questions... you may need to install Themekey Comptability Module and manually override the admin users themeìng - never had a reason to do it, so I don`t know the exact settings you will need, you need to play around with it. For user pages, it is the same process, only with the relevant url(s)
