Description

When using "Theme control" together with a Category, the *.tpl files in templates/styles/{mytheme}/ are not considered for the pages attached to the category.

To see this, create a testcategory and a testpage. Then use "Theme control" and configure a theme having some *.tpl files in templates/styles/{mytheme}/ to be used for the testcategory.

Go to the testpage and it will show in the style. Now try to change one of the *.tpl files. The changes do not take effect.

Note that this is not about emptying the cache.

You can try and use mytheme as main theme and the one you used previously as main theme as "Theme controlled" one. You will now be able to edit the templates/sytles/{mystyle}/ files with the edits being picked up, but now changes to files in the former maintemplate cease to be considered.
