    I'm skinning the standard DNN forum and I'm running into a problem with the default portal skin. I've created a skin, which I installed as the default skin for the portal. This all works fine in the general forum view. Also when navigating to a specific forum, the posts display correctly, showing the default portal skin. However when I click "New Thread" (and several other instances) and the Add/Edit Post page appears, the forum is skinned correctly, however the standard Minimal Extropy skin is displayed instead of the default portal skin (my skin). When I click on Site Settings (at the Add/Edit Post page), the settings appear to be for my default forum site (overview of all forums). I tried setting the Page Skin (in Site Settings > Advanced Settings) to my skin, however this doesn't fix the problem. How can I avoid the forum showing the standard MinimalExtropy skin when navigating to the following forum pages: - Pages linked to the top horizontal buttonbar (Moderate, Admin, My Settings, Search)? My Posts and My Threads display the correct skin though. - Add/Edit Post (when clicking "New Thread") - Probably another page I haven't visited/found yet.

    Hello,

    Try applying your custom skin as the default admin skin as well:

    Go to the admin menu/site settings
    appearance/
    Edit Skin and Edit Container (admin skin)

    - I suspect the forum module is using the skin specified there.

    hope this helps, thanks,
