Hi friends,

Please help me, i want to add a link at the bottom of my site near by  "Privacy Statement  |  Terms Of Us" .but i am unable to to do so.

please reply asap.

Thanx

 Hi Ashish

Unless there is a content pane in the area you want the link you either need to add a content pane or hardcode the link into the skin's index.ascx.

 To put a content pane in the area you wish open the skin and add:
<div id="MyNewPane" class="MyNewPane" runat="server" visible="false"> </div> 
This would also need some positioning css in the skin.css file.

To hard code a link. (Using the default dnn skin)
Open in notepad (if you do not have an editor able to work with ascx files).

Look for: the following and add the highlighted code.
<div id="terms_style" class="footer">
<dnn:PRIVACY runat="server" id="dnnPRIVACY" CssClass="footer" />&nbsp;|&nbsp;<dnn:TERMS runat="server" id="dnnTERMS" CssClass="footer" />
&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.dotnetnuke.com" Class="user">Example Link</a></div>

Save the file and ftp it into the skins folder to overwrite the original.
The link will have the same styling as all standard links on your site unless you style using something like the user class reference in orange.

Note you can even use old tools like Front page to edit these skin files. Just take note of the code in the header before you save as when you do FP adds some code that will stop the skin from working. Check and delete if it does this.

Make a copy of your skin in case of problems.

My Tip for skinning. Download MS Expression. You get a 30 day trail. Also see this page here at dnn
http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Partners/MicrosoftWebsiteSpark/tabid/1418/Default.aspx   You can get expression for free if you qualify (and we all do it seems).
Load the skin as you would a website - link the systelsheet and what you see is what the skin does (most times anyway).

Hope this helps
