I have a project having multiple themes in App_Themes directory, one of which is main theme and I have mentioned that in <page> directive of web.config and another theme is not being used by whole application so it's mentioned on only those pages which use that theme.

My VS has this configuration:

Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2013
Version 12.0.30723.00 Update 3
Microsoft .NET Framework
Version 4.5.51641
Installed Version: Professional

Now the issue is i'm having below error when trying to publish my web application.

Theme 'SecondaryTheme' cannot be found in the application or global theme directories.

I have done some research and by few adjustments I was able to publish it at last but why am I having this error on first place?

Another question is: In adjustments I have excluded App_Themes from publishing (read here), and have removed theme references from web.config and pages where it was referenced, Now of course I'll have to add those removed theme references when I will deploy my published package so it becomes a little cumbersome task to remember and do this theme reference removal and re-adding every time I do a publish. So is there any better solution to this?

Can you post your solution structure for theme part? – Amit Jan 07 '15 at 10:12
Where SecondaryTheme falls? – Amit Jan 07 '15 at 12:10
@Amit its LTE_CrsTheme, LTE_Themes is primary. I used secondary theme in question as just an alias to it. – yogi Jan 08 '15 at 06:34
So, as per given screenshotLTE_CrsTheme is not having any content because it is not showing icon to dig in? – Amit Jan 08 '15 at 07:34
