How can I theme the template for edit or add a node for a specific content type?

drupal, drupal-6, php, preprocessor, templates

Solution

Hmm. There may be a better way but what about a preprocess function.

I'm still really new to Drupal, so I would maybe try something like this [code may not work]:

<?php
function themeName_preprocess_page(&$vars, $hook) {
  if ((arg(0) == 'node') && (arg(1) == 'add' && arg(2) == 'product')) {
    $vars['template_files'][] =  'page-node-add-product';
  }
}
?>

Be sure to clear cache and theme registry after making new preprocess functions.

Problem

I want to theme the template for edit or add a node for a specific content type. For example, to theme all the content type forms I use the file `page-node-{add|edit}.tpl.php` (depending what I need to do add or edit). But I didn't found the template name for a custom node type, for example Products. I need to theme only for Products, but not for the other content types. I've tried with `page-node-edit-product.tpl.php` and `page-node-product-edit.tpl.php` but no luck.
