I am helping a person who is having problems loading the a Google map. I am VERY new to DNN and am having a difficult time finding where to edit the base template (or skin). I updated the api in the module and drilling down to the problem it seems that the Maps API is trying to load twice on the page. Previewing the  code, I see a line that does need to be removed.

Line 1141: <script type="text/javascript" src="https://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"></script>

This line falls outside the "modules" on the skin. So I don't see where it is editable. Can someone give me a click-through path that will show me where I can remove this line in the template? I've been digging for the file where this can be edited but thus far it's been elusive.

 

Thank You!

As the map is content one would expect the script to be loaded by a module.
A module can also trigger loading the script outside the module's html.

But it can also be that the script is included in the skin.
In that case you need to find out what the skin is and edit the corresponding ascx in either

/Portals/_default/Skins/"Skinname"

OR

/Portals/"PortalFolder"/Skins/"Skinname"

I think we may be zeroing in... To reiterate, I'm super new to DNN.

Here's what I did:

  • I signed in on the font end.
  • From the top, I went to Host --> File Management
  • Then I went to the folder path: root/skins/20060-UnlimitedColorsPack-042

This makes perfect sense to me, only I'm not seeing any ascx files. I'm seeing plenty of images and xml, but no ascx.

Your instructions don't exactly match the steps I took, but it looks very similar. did I miss something? Maybe I'm working on an old version? Can ascx files not be accessed or modified when signing in through the browser?

Thank you so much for your patience and your help!

Ascx files are not shown in the file manager for security reasons.
In principle you can execute any code if you would have access to them, which is why they are not shown.
So you would need access to the files through ftp or RDP.

BTW, this looks like a dnngo skin, make sure you install the latest updates as there were (very serious)  security issue in previous versions (which is quite uncommon for a DNN skin).
But I wonder if DNNGo skins have a google maps script tag in them. You could ask the vendor..
BTW some people also add script tags to the module header (module > settings > advanced > header)
