[support] Configuring blocks to show on different pages depending on theme

[KOBA | Hans Rossel]

Normally you should be able to have your blocks differently setup in
different themes so something is wrong in your theme files or in some
module that influences blocks. Disable your custom themes and see if
it still happens with core themes only. Disable temporary modules that
might influence blocks to see which one it could be. Check the .info
file of your custom theme. Did you create the theme yourself?

Good luck,

Hans
