I am starting to dig deeper with your various skinning tutorials. Managed to get House of Nuke (1.3) working with the various free skins. But what I need is a drop down menu for sub menu like the standard, but not SEO friendly, DNN default. Can this be achieved with House of Nuke? Alternatively can you produce a tutorial showing how to have horizontal and vertical menus so “Page 1” shows Page 1 vertical sub menus and “Page 2” shows Page 2 vertical sub menus Do you already achieve this on the DNN Creative site choosing Forums produces a “sub menu” for Unanswered, Not Read, My Forums – which of course may be a function of the forum module If there is already a tutorial which one?

I'm not entirely sure what you want, but ... if you want different menu setups on different pages, the best way to do this is to use multiple skins, and apply different skins to different pages. They could all be similar, but have different menu configurations.

As for the links on the forum pages, they are actually part of the ActiveForums module.

Hi Joe Sorry for the confusion 1. When you install DNN "out of the box" and add sub pages when you run over the top menu you get drop down - like "word" used to be - So question 1 can House of Nuke support this or does it have to show all options all the time? 2. Yes, I do have a need for context specific "sub menus". So if the top menu was Shoes, Cars, Holidays and if you click on a page about   you get "links / sub menu" vertically for Red Shoes, Blue Shoes etc, Cars Page vertically Ford, BMW, Mercedes and holidays UK, Europe, America I like the alternate skins by category concept would you have seperate HouseMenus HouseMenu being the horizontal consistant across all categories (skins), HouseMenu1 for Shoes, HouseMenu2 for Cars and HouseMenu3 for Holidays I thinks I need to delve deeper into the Red Leaf and Lazy Days examples

It's possible easier/better to build the context sensitive links manually.  You can use the Links module.  You can also use the Text/HTML module.
