Hi Tim0

Thank you for the speedy response.
Minor difference, but important difference.  This has worked 100%.

For those who encounter this problem and are unsure why like I was, simply add:

form{
height:100%
}

to your skin.css file.

Timo, please advise - do you think this CSS will cause problems in future DNN updates..?

Thanks

Jon

Yes the problem with this kind of stuff is that you always cause problems, if we leave it in or if we remove it.
Since you cannot "unset" any CSS, just overwrite it I think removing it was the best solution.

And, no your CSS will not cause problems in the future.

@Jared, what kind of skin?

A skin and container package combined?

Then you have to check if the files inside the skin zip are called Skin.css and Container.css (Case sensitive! For now, this will be corrected in DNN 5.0.1)

Thank you for this invaluable guide. I followed the instructions for installing my legacy skin and container and all went well - except that I cvannot find a way to apply the skin only to Portal 0 (or any other) rather than the default. This means I must apply it to the host and not the site. Have I missed something - or is there some workaround?

I have been out of action for couple of months. Here are some issues we are trying to resolve other than the ones reported already, which I am not sure if they are reported. I will check the bug tracker today.

-----------

 

1. When you upload one legacy skin in host--> skin option it uploads the skin fine in very first time. If you upload the same skin (with few changes) in the next time, it says the upload Successful. But actually it didn't get applied. Only the file that was applied at the first time exist not the latest one. 

2. In IE-6 the new DNN menu has horizontal Scroll bar at the bottom. No issue in firefox.

3. Skins which use Telerik skin objects: 

When we upload skins zip (which has only htmls and no ascx) in its conversion to ascx it has registered the Telerik skin object but the path is not correct. 

<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="RADPANELBAR" Src="~/RadPanelbar.ascx" %>

To work properly it should Register the skin object like below:

<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="RADPANELBAR" Src="~/DesktopModules/radpanelbar/RadPanelbar.ascx" %>

We are not sure either it needs a fix in DNN core or it is a task for Telerik Team.

@michel,

does this help:

B. Manage skin pages
Due to the changes mentioned before the location and the functionality of the skin management pages has changed too.
 
Skin management for Admins
The previous Admin > Skins page moved.
Select Admin > Extensions and Click "Manage Skins" at the bottom of the page
Manage skins will show both DNN 5 and legacy skins.
