Hi,

I am new to DNN, so i am trying to push all the buttons..to see what happens.. :)

I just chose a skin for site that has only rectangular border...now i dont see anything.. no controls....nothing.

So, i wonder where in DB, in what table, what field, i can change teh settings, so i can have all the controls back?!?

Don't want to reinstall my DNN.

 

Thanks for any help

Slightly vague I guess.  Did you make a new skin that has no border?

Either way, you shouldn't go into the database tables directly for any reason unless you are developing modules.  You could make a change in one area accidently cause a problem in another.

the database should only be touched programmatically, by modules that have been written and tested properly to prevent major issues.

If you want...you could just go to the portal root, containers folder, and delete all the non-defualt ones, or better yet, move them out of the containers folder, along with the skins.

DNN will then report an error when tryign to load them(logged in as admin), and it will revert to the default skins(if you still have them).

Here is the location, relative to your install.

%dnninstallpath%\Portals\_default\Containers  <-- if you installed them as host

%dnninstallpath%\Portals\_default\Skins    <--if installed as host.

otherwise pick the portal you installed it in, and put that number in place of _default.  IE:

%dnninstallpath\Portals\0\Containers

Let me know if that works!

{your site name here}/Default.aspx?SkinSrc=[G]%2fskins%2fdnn-blue%2fhorizontal+menu+-+fixed+width
should get you there.
