Hi, this is agreat looking admin theme!

I have just enabled the Adminimal theme for my site and have set it as the default admin theme to use. Once the theme is enabled, blocks and minipanels that should only be visible on the front end theme are appearing in the Adminimal theme.

I have gone into the edit section of a block and checked that it should not appear in any region on the Adminimal theme but it does.

My front end theme is Adaptive Theme. I have tried with Seven enabled and disabled but it makes no difference.

Ok I found the solution, sorry.

It relates to this core issue: https://drupal.org/node/1293550 where disabled themes can be set.

Once I enabled the Adminimal theme i saveed the configuration. Went back into the theme settings and set it as the admin theme. Now on the block pages I can see that the Adminimal theme by default is placing blocks into the content region. Would this be better UX the region was 'None' by default?

I think this is a Drupal core issue (feature?) which has nothing to do with Adminimal.

Same issue here. Views and blocks are displaying on the back-end. The above suggested solution did not work.

Do you get this error with the Default "Seven" Theme? (Enable it and set it as your administration theme, then see if the problem exists there too)
Have you tried disabling the "Adminimal Theme" from the "Appearance" menu?
Clear the caches...

All other themes appear as normal. Tried disabling/ enabling via the appearance menu without making any difference to the issue. Caches cleared without effect.

Try this...
Disable the Adminimal Theme, Switch to Seven for your administration theme, Remove completely the Adminimal Theme file directory (usually found at sites/all/themes/adminimal_theme), clear all site caches, download a fresh stable version of adminimal theme, Switch to Adminimal Theme as your Administration theme (but don't enable it). See if the problem persists. If its still there check for any block/panels related modules that you might have installed.

Also try to use the Adminimal Theme on a different site, with different set of modules installed (preferably on the same server that hosts the other site).

Quick update. I've reinstalled the theme (didn't enable it) without success. The problem persists. I'm back to using the Seven Admin theme with the Administration menu Adminimal Theme module (which isn't the end of the world).

I'll try the other suggested steps if I get a chance.

Thanks

Update - I tried it on another site on the same server and it works fine with this one. I'm guessing that on site with the problem the blocks that are outputting in the backend are configured in an odd way.

This issue occurs when you enable the Adminimal Theme after you've assigned blocks to their respective regions. The Adminimal theme only has one region assigned, so when it is activated, all of the blocks will be assigned to the content region, since the system doesn't recognise the other regions.

A simple fix: Go to Structure -> Blocks -> Adminimal and de-activate all of the blocks that you don't require in your content region.

Hope that helps!

intfocus's suggestion worked for me :)
