It worked for CE as well. Check for the XML files which loads default theme.

@charles, it didn't work in your Magento 1.6 CE because of the community extension "Find" located in app/code/community/Find. A quick way to make it work is to either remove the extension, if you don't use it, or, remove the lines 121 to 129 (included) from the config.xml of the extension: find It should work then. Don't forget to clean your cache. Hope that helped. -Hugues

Does this work in 1.6 CE ? I tried it and I can’t get any custom templates to load.

First of all thanks to your guys for providing such informative code. I have also search web for this and fond this use full post. Our problem was we wanted it to be worked for enterprise edition. You code was only to overwrite the theme. Which as not working well for enterprise edition. I have added code to overwrite skin as well and that worked.

Thanks again,
Rizvan
