I thought DDR menu was automatically included with new versions of DNN.  Is it automatically applied to older skins using the NAV menu?

I tried applying it to this menu: http://design2011.dotnetnuke.com/stor... 

But, the text is small and condensed and not applied properly.

I tried to upgrade by changing:

dnn:nav id="dnnNAV" providername="DNNMenuNavigationProvider"

to:

dnn:nav id="dnnNAV" providername="DDRMenuNavigationProvider"

....

Per http://www.dnngarden.com/Upgrading-a-... 


Do I actually need to INSTALL the DDR module separately?  Thanks

It should be automatically installed as a provider in DNN, but it will not be used in skins unless they were created with that provider in place.

As you apply that Provider (as you've done by changing the provider name) you will likely need to redefine or customize the CSS for the menu/skin.

Thanks Chris -- I thought that was a key benefit of DDR menu... it automatically uses old menu settings (can convert DNN Nav or Solpart).  Other sites that were using Nav menus converted beautifully in past... Oh well.

Thanks!
