I've working on creating a skin via ascx, not the HTML/XML method.  Everything is working fine, except "breadcrumb" and "copyright" will not display.  I am using DNN 4.X   Here is my code so far: (I've blocked out pieces of it for privacy)

 

<%@ Control language="vb" CodeBehind="~/admin/Skins/skin.vb" AutoEventWireup="false" Explicit="True" Inherits="DotNetNuke.UI.Skins.Skin" %> 
<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="LOGO" Src="~/Admin/Skins/Logo.ascx" %> 
<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="BREADCRUMB" Src="~/Admin/Skins/BreadCrumb.ascx" %>  
<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="LOGIN" Src="~/Admin/Skins/Login.ascx" %> 
<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="COPYRIGHT" Src="~/Admin/Skins/Copyright.ascx" %>

<head>
    <title>xxx</title>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="x" type="text/css" media="all" />
<!--[if gt IE 6.0]><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/css/ie.css" media="all" /><![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 6]>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/ie6.css" type="text/css" media="all" />
<![endif]-->


</head>
<body id="employmentIndex" class="listType-b shield">
<!-- Begin collapsible Control panel code -->
<div id="dnnheader">
    <div id="xxx">
    <a href="http://www.wisc.edu">
        <img src="<%= SkinPath %>imagxxx" alt="Uxxxme" title="Uxxnixxxxe" border="0"/>    </a>

    </li>
    <li>

        <a href="/xxx/">xxx</a>

                <a href="xxx">xxx</a><span> >&nbsp;</span>
            </li>

            <li id="lastcrumb" title="current page">
                <dnn:Breadcrumb runat="server" id="dnnBreadcrumb" RootLevel="-1" />
            </li>
        </ol>
    </div>
</div>
<div id="container">
    <div id="xxxx">
        <span id="content">
            <div runat="server" id="ContentPane"></div>
        </span>
        <div id="col2">
            <div id="photo">
                <img src="<%= SkinPath %>imxxx.jpg" alt="xxx" width="325" height="158" />
            </div>
            <div runat="server" id="AsidePane"></div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>
<div id="footer">
<div id="dnnlogin"><dnn:LOGIN runat="server" id="dnnLOGIN" CssClass="footer" /></div>
    <h2>Footer and Copyright</h2>
    <ul>
        <li>
            <a href="xxxx" id="footcontact">Contact us</a><span>. For visitor and other information, call</span>xxxxx
        </li>

        <li class="last">
            <a href="xxxx">About this site</a>
        </li>
    </ul>
    <dnn:COPYRIGHT runat="server" id="dnnCOPYRIGHT" />
</div></body>


Is there any logical reason why I can't implement the breadcrumb or copyright tokens?  Any help is greatly appreciated!

Is the Copyright field blank?  Do breadcrumbs work if level is 0?  Have you tried putting dummy text there to see if it displays?

I got it!  After pulling all my hair out, I've found it's a css problem.  The style sheet I was given to work with had set the span tags within the breadcrumb and footer divs to be invisible.  I didn't realize that DNN throws 'span' tags around all the elements of the portal.  I disabled the css that was causing this, and everything is now working just peachy! 

 

Thanks for the suggestions Jeff.  Much appreciated!
