This is a good question and relates to the flexability of the system.
Styles are applied at the Skin Level (the folder under DesktopMenu/SnapsisDNN/Skins)
If the child portal directory has a stylesheet with the same class name, then the child can override the Skins style. This allows you to create a skin with a border an default PortalBanner, then upload a different PortalBanner graphic to the child portal's upload directory along with a style sheet that contains that class and then the child can have it's own styles/graphics.
The classes for the PortalBanner graphics are:
.PortalBanner {
height:125;
width:700;
padding-left:5;
padding-top:15;
background-color: transparent;
background-image:url(PortalBanner.gif);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}
.PortalBannerRepeat {
width:200;
padding:0;
background-image:url(PortalBannerRepeat.gif);
background-repeat-x:repeat;
background-color: #f1f1ff;
}
And some layouts may have a Right image:
.PortalBannerRight {
width:60;
padding:0;
background-image:url(PortalBannerRight.gif);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-color: #f1f1ff;
}
If you had CSS 1.0.10 version installed and then applied this version, you could choose the Classic DotNetNuke skin, then put your graphics and old stylesheet in the child portal's upload directory. They will override the DotNetNuke Skin Graphics.
You may have to tweak your old stylesheet a little to get positioning right, but that's about it.
The new system will override the applied skin at the portal level if there is a stylesheet with the same class names in the upload directory of the portal.
If you remove thos classes from the SnapsisDNN.css stylesheet (or remove the whole stylesheet) from the upload directory you should see the skin's default styles again. | | | |
