Hi
I have been playing around with the Lazy_Days skin in an effort to learn css based skinning, I have written several table based skins successfully in the past and whilst I am familiar with the workings (mainly due to a suck it and see approach).

So I am new to CSS skins and also to the housemenu.

I have added many tokens before to my skins but for some reason I cannot get the [HOUSEMENU] token to work.

I have downloaded all the tutorials regarding using the lazy days skin and the HOUSEMENU menu control but I cant get the [HOUSEMENU] to be recognised.

I have installed the skinobject version as usual without any problems and I have the Lazy Days skin working fin on my new dnn ver 4-8-4 test installation but the [HOUSEMENU] appears as plain text on the skin!

I cant for the life of me figure it out wat is wrong.

any help would be gratefully received
Wayne

OK I fixed myself after googling the problem.
If anyone else comes across this situation you need to uninstall the Lazy Days skin and housemenu skin object control from your portal and reinstall the housemenu skinobject control BEFORE the skin then all will work fine.

The installation order is important
