DNN Menu

HELP!!

Simply stated, I can't get the solpartmenu (or simply just the menu) to work correctly when I get finished with my skins. I have created several different layouts (with different backgrounds, etc), and I can never get my menu to look like. I have included a link to the image of my problem. Basically, for some reason, I can't get my menu colors to change according to my stylesheet.... help!!!!

Thanks,

Re: DNN Menu

One way is to look around the web for a comparable dnn site in terms of the menu and copy the css.

The default skins are close to what you have too. All you really need is to add the separator to the skin.xml or separator=<....

You also don’t need the arrows.

            <Setting>
                <Name>separator</Name>
                <Value><![CDATA[<img src="images\menu_sep.gif">]]></Value>
            </Setting>

Re: DNN Menu

I didn't really have a problem with the separator, just the fact I can't get the color of the menu options to change. It blends into the background....

I appreciate your help though.

Re: DNN Menu

if you are using the html skinning approach, please post skin.xml and the css bit. and if it is ascx then the solpartmenu node and I am sure we would be able to see the issue

Re: DNN Menu

I guess that would help :) I went ahead and created a zip (as if I was going to upload to the parser). It contains the xml, html, css, and images that I use.
