This is my first time completely designing a site myself using DNN.  It's installed on the server, and I'm tinkering with some skins.  I've downloaded them locally and want to upload them to DNN.  I'm logged in as Admin and I've navigated to Admin > Skins.   From here there should be a link to upload a new skin, but alas there's nothing to be found.  HELP!

Hi Andrew
we don't stupid questions we all had to start somewhere, if you don;t ask do don't know, Try logging as host you may not have permission to upload skins as admin, all should be revealed, this setting works for me i don't let other users upload skins to their sites i like to do it as host from the site login
have fun

Okay... next one:

I've installed a Text/HTML module on my content pane, and when I go to try and edit the text, I get this:

An error has occurred.
Error: Edit Text/HTML is currently unavailable.


NO explaination, no obvious help.  Anyone's thoughts?

Okay... now with this 2nd issue.  I've installed a Text/HTML module in the Content Pane.  When I'm logged in as Superuser 'host' account, I get this message when trying to edit the Text/HTML module.  HELP!
