Hi,
I want to add my company details as a link in the footer of my pages in the same way the Terms and Privacy work. I can do this by adding the url into the skin and creating a new a.class to make it look the same as the other skin object items. What I have just tried to do is create a new object and token. I have used the Terms xml, ascx and vb files and changed the code to match my new link. I have had several issues. When I try to upload and install the skin from a .zip i get the following error,

  • Processing token: [DTC]
  • Token not found: [DTC]

    • When I try and put this directly into my ascx file I get this error.

     DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.PageLoadException: Unhandled error loading page. ---> System.Web.HttpParseException: C:\websites\DNN\cssskin\Admin\Skins\DTC.ascx.vb(1): error ASPNET: Make sure that the class defined in this code file matches the 'inherits' attribute, and that it extends the correct base class (e.g. Page or UserControl). ---> System.Web.HttpCompileException: C:\websites\DNN\cssskin\Admin\Skins\DTC.ascx.vb(1): error ASPNET: Make sure that the class defined in this code file matches the 'inherits' attribute, and that it extends the correct base class (e.g. Page or UserControl). at System.Web.Compilation.BuildManager.PostProcessFoundBuildResult(BuildResult result, Boolean keyFromVPP, VirtualPath virtualPath) etc etc....

    Can you point me in the right direction, is it possable to do this in this way?

    Regards

    Roger

    I don't have the answer for you, but you've clearly got a problem with the way that your skin object inherits from the proper class.  Take a look at this blog entry and also this one.

    Hi Roger.

     

    I normally just change the settings in the “Skin HTML” file, Ie; “index_no_logo.html”.

     

    In the bottom of that file you have all the code and “href=” format.

     

    Cheers
