Magento – Get default theme name

admindesignmagento-1.9packagetheme

I have my Magento package/theme structure configured like this:

In Configuration -> General -> Design:

In the package section the text "default".
In the themes section I have all the inputs empty except for the default input where I have introduced the name of my theme: "mytheme".

I need to get the package && theme name by code.

I have no problems with the package name:

Mage::getDesign('core/design_package')->getPackageName()

This code returns "default", which is perfect.

But when I try to get the theme name, I cannot get the text "mytheme".

Mage::getDesign()->getTheme('frontend');
Mage::getDesign()->getTheme('layout');
Mage::getDesign()->getTheme('template');
Mage::getDesign()->getTheme('skin');
Mage::getDesign()->getTheme('locale');

The different approachs return always "default".

If I introduce and save the name of my theme for example in the "layout" input, I can get it with:

Mage::getDesign()->getTheme('layout');

But how I can get the text of the "default" input?

Best Answer

Try with 

Mage::getStoreConfig('design/theme/template');
Mage::getStoreConfig('design/theme/layout');
Mage::getStoreConfig('design/theme/skin');
Mage::getStoreConfig('design/theme/locale');
Mage::getStoreConfig('design/theme/default');
