I'm going to do a couple of more tests because today one of my staff was working on uploading a skin to a client project - it was a child portal. The first time he did this, it worked without a problem but we updated the skin and he rezipped and went to upload it again, but found the actual links to upload skins was gone. He was logged in as host, within the child portal, and clicked the Admin / skins page, checked that preview wasn't on and there was no links to upload skins or containers. I checked the files were correctly packaged as they were not when he first tried, but for the life of me - it does appear to have disappeared, so tomorrow I will test it again and see what the outcome is.
Perhaps there is a bug - but the interesting thing is that he was able to upload once, but the second and subsequent times nothing.
Thought I'd mention this so we don't all think we're going crazy.
Of late, I've tried to do a few things the *standard* way so I can possibly identify things since over time, while there have been quirks and odd behaviour with DNN or perhaps doing them a bit slower, I use shortcuts, which I feel doesn't necessarily assist in answering problems.
I'll keep you posted on this.
