Hello,
I have a site where I have 2 different domains going to the same DNN install. I was wondering if it is possible to have a different skin load depending on the domain being used.
Thanks

From what I interpret  what you are saying.. the answer I think is no.  Unless you have them as child portals.

Yea, I didn't think it was prossible, and no, I'd not be doing child portals, so yea. Thanks for the confirmation of that.

What about having two different parent portals?

He probably wants them to both be on the same portal.

This would give you the ability to make the one portal look like different sites depending on what domain was used to get there, which in turn could give you a back-end that combined the two different looking sites into one for a single sign on system.

This actually would not be that hard to make happen if you had a special skin placeholder that looked at the domain being used and loaded the desired skin.

The core code allows you to assign the skin based on a value in a cookie which you can read about here:

Nik even has an example of switching the skin dynamically which you can read about here:

If I get a little extra time today, I'll work up an example of switching the skin based on the domain name.
