Administrative theme persisting in CiviCRM

Problem/Motivation

Administrative gin theme appearing in CiviCRM even if the default theme for CiviCRM has been set to Claro

Steps to reproduce

Having Drupal 10 website with gin theme and civicrm.
For now we have hid it within theme ext The Island in civicrm by adding following:
body.page-civicrm .gin-secondary-toolbar { display: none; }

But with every ext update we need to include this css to ignore it

Proposed resolution

I see two paths.

Adding field on which paths shouldn't gin theme run on, for example /civicrm/ in my case or
If administrative theme has been set for example to Claro for civicrm, gin shouldn't be shown on CRM side

Either way works, but 1st approach might be better as there are some people that might have preferences to either allow it or ignore it

User interface changes

Removing toolbar from certain paths if needed

I'm not sure about the best path but as CiviCRM places an option to override the admin theme specifically for CiviCRM maybe you can first reach out to CiviCRM if they actually can handle it? This might be the best solution in my opinion.

As a temporary solution you could place your CSS overrides in https://www.drupal.org/docs/contributed-themes/gin-admin-theme/custom-th... → or create a small helper module and override the secondary toolbar template on the given path you mentioned

Thanks, will write to civicrm.

Will consider adding custom css for now like your proposed while I see how it is at their end. Tho in general it might be nice to have for gin to ignore certain paths.
