Hello everyone,

I am new in DNN web development and I am currently working on a website that was not developed by me. It uses a DNN platform. I am able to login and do various changes there. But apparently the website uses some kind of template. The template contains various links. I have to change the colour and font of the links. When I access the page window, I am able to alter the name and their hierachy, however I can't change the style. I tried to find the HTML files that build up the content in the root folder on the server, but I am having troubles doing it. I was wondering how can I access all HTML (or any other pages written in JS or CSS) to make appropriate changes.

 

Thanks.

you need to modify the skin of the site, which might require superuser ("host") access to the site.

to alter liknk color and font, use the deve3loper toolbar to get the CSS class applied and overwrite css class using css editor in Site Settings.,

As far as I know I am using the admin login and password. Thus I am assuming I have full access and control over the websit. I just downloaded the toolbar. Seems to be very helpfull. At least I can see which file is responsible for certain content. Thank you very much.

I am using the CSS developer toolbar right now. I was wondering whether it is possible to identify which portion of the code is responsible for a certain item on my page. For example when using FireBug to inspect the code, I am pointing at a certain item (in my case the links in the menu panel) and I can see which block of code is responsible. However, the code that I see is already adapted to the changes made in the initial CSS template. When I open to view the entire CSS of the page, I see only the initial skin templates. Here is what I see when I use FireBug to point out one of the links:

 

<span id="dnn_dnnNAV_ctldnnNAVt56" style="cursor: pointer;">SERVICES    </span>
