Sorry if this is a n00b questions, but I've only been in the DNN Arena for a few weeks now and although I've overcome some very formidable challenges, I've also been getting my butt kicked around. :-)  Here are a few of my issues I'm experiencing.  If anyone could help I'd be real appreciative, I'm on a tight deadline and if I can just understand a bit more, my project just might come together!

1. TOKENS!  Where can I get a TOKEN listing at, what exact document? 

2. SKINNING Tricks.  Here is some information about how my document is setup.  I have 3 skins, one for the welcome page which is divided up into many boxes, and two other skins for the internal pages, one with a sidebar and one without.  At first I had the [TERMS] Token in my footer, but whenever I clicked on TERMS it seemed to always use the skin for the welcome page, not the internal page like I want it to.  I read somewhere to just make a link to a terms page, which could use the internal skin, but how do I place a token on an individual page???  I'm having the same issue with the [LOGIN] token.  I have the Login/Register at the top of my template, and they want to display the login box on the main skin.  I'd like the login box to appear using a different skin if that is possible.

3. BLOG.  Once again I loaded a blog component into one of the blocks on my main page (to show the most recent blog post), but when clicking on "READ MORE" It stays on the main page template and loads everything into the sidebar, instead of going to a dedicated blog page.  Is there anyway to show a "most recent blog post" in a small content pane and have it link to a different skin or template to display the full article???

Please help DNN Community... you are my only hope. :-)

Thanks much!

Lynn,

Thanks for the reference, that does help, however....

Let's say I create a blank page that I want the Terms of Use to be on.  How do I pull that token or "tag" [TERMS] onto that particular page?
Likewise, how do I create a page with the Registration and Login Box on it?  I know how to create a page while logged in as admin or host, but then I am clueless on how to put a token or tag on that page.  Any advice?

Thanks,
SuperDMon

Hi SuperDMon,

I see the first two questions have already been answered, so I'll try to help you with the third one. I suggest you to introduce an XML/XSL module in the main page consuming the RSSfeed of the blog. You can customize the look and feel of the recent posts in your blog, as long as the number of recent posts to display with an XSLT file and the XPath syntax. I hope that this will work as it worked fine for my personal website.

Best regards,
Dario Rossa.
