I am trying to have the logo go on top of the page but everytime I create it it only gives me about half of the page
http://games.servehttp.com/DNN4/

As you can see the logo stays on the left site. How can I stretch it across the top of the page, or at least insert other items on the right side. I use the standard skin for this product.

If you haven't adjusted the skin then that cell is split into two. On the left is the token is [LOGO] and the right is the [BANNER].

This process is explained in Lee's excellent videos on creating skins. He can give you the correct number on this.

What we are going to do is make a quick custom skin.

You should have a local install of the DNN you are using on the website on your computer.

  • Open the install and go to portal/default/any color/ and copy its contents to a seperate location on your hard drive. c:\SkinWithoutBanner for example.
  • Open the HTML file in an editor of choice. Notepad is fine. Locate the [BANNER] token in a table cell towards the top. Change the  [BANNER] cell to <td id="LOGORIGHT" runat="server" valign="top" align="center"></td>
  • Save
  • Zip the files in the directory into a zip file called SkinWithoutBanner.zip
  • You should really run this on your local install first to make sure it works. If this isn't possible then FTP this zip file to your host site into the install/skins folder. You should see a placeholder file in it.
  • In your browsers address line run http://<something.com>/Install/Install.aspx?mode=Installresources
  • This will install your new skin
  • Log in as administrator
  • Change the page or portal to use this skin. It will be called SkinWithoutBanner, doing it on a page would be best to see if it works
  • Now you can add a module to the new choice called LOGORIGHT the same way you add any modules
This is a very simplified way of doing what I think you want to do. Since you paid for the videos from this site and Lee goes into far more detail than I outlined here I would strongly encourage you to watch them. Then you'll get the reasons of what I did as oppossed to just following some simple lines
