acrylic,

I understand that whenever anyone writes or speaks to an audience, chances are you will not address the needs of everyone.  To switch menus, you simply need to change the ProviderName as specified in the document.  It should be noted that switching the provider name will require some additional css modifications in order to make your menu look good.  Hopefully this is the simple answer you are looking for.

 

robax,

Send me an email if you want to test this out.

Boy do I know and FEEL THAT one! Being both a designer and a jr. developer I feel a conflict inside me, something to the effect of a star wars movie.... I digress...

Two questions Jon regarding clientapi if possible -

1. With bare changes in my web.config file trusting the performance settings were legit, I feel like the online process of editing/configuring,etc my dnn app is slllllllllllllllooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow. Is there any changes I can make on the backend to assist a faster relay? IIS 6.0/server 2003.

I don't think this makes a difference, but my dnn is in c:drive, websites sitting in E:drive, does this make any hoo-haa difference?

2. I have over 20 pre-designed websites running on my server, I would like to add  DNN to them, do I have to start from scratch? I create with CSS and Divs, NOT skinning /.do I have to learn to use and create skins now? I'm assuming so? Also, I can't take the websites offline, is there a way to PRE-Configure pages and then add them together at the end?

3. I guess I have a third and final question (sure you are probably "sighing" by now, lol!)
I don't know much about caching or cookies but could that also help with performance online??

I thank you again Jon and will be an avid learner and reader of your clientapi threads!

Jon, I thnk I answered some of my own post -!

Upon further reading of the skinning forum, I found this phabyn, don't know  if this will help you, but it will me, and hopefully others:

http://www.skincovered.com/html-skinning.aspx

For newcomers to DotNetNuke, the most common way to start skinning is using the HTML method.  However, at times, this can be frustrating as combined with the HTML, to be comlpetely synchronised, some XML is required so the enhancements you want to apply to the skin are picked up in the uploading process.  This can be somewhat confusing for beginners, but it need not be when you understand a few small steps required to combine the skinning process together.
