Anyone seeing an issue changing active skin? I set my test env to Nova and Nova is displayed for the index page but the cp is still set to PJ. When I look at PJ, it is still set as the active skin even though Nova is displayed.

I have reset caches and run integrity check.

Make sure you're not running the "Admin Skin" module - that's what it is designed to do.

I don't see any issues with the skins on this end.

Thanks!

Brian - It was indeed the admin skin. I was not even aware I set that up lol. I am not sure if the change flow is as user friendly as it could be though?

current setting:
PJ set as active skin (it is only active for admin skin)
PJ admin module checked and active
Nova is the site skin - no settings set in any module

If the user wants to change back to PJ, they need to:
Uncheck the Admin Module which:
1. changes the admin skin to nova and sets Nova as the active skin
2. changes the admin skin to nova
Then the user goes back to PJ and sets it as the active module

Would it make more sense to have a checkbox in the skin for
set site skin to $SKIN_NAME?
set admin skin to $SKIN_NAME?

The current flow is functional but on first glance, it looks odd because the active skin is checked for the admin skin and not the site skin.
