I am following the 4 videos for installing the HTML5BoilerPlate skin. I have followed each step and saved the files correctly. I've uploaded the skin folder with the files to the Portals>_default>skins

I've downloaded and installed the 49Fingers StyleHelper module.

Now, when I login and try to create a page and use this skin (HTML5BoilerPlate) I can select the skin from the drop down menu and save it. But, I get this error message and have no idea where to go or how to resolve this issue.

I've also tried to see the 49Fingers module listed in the Active Extensions but, don't see anything there with that name. I also attempted to re-install it and a notice says it has already been installed.

Here is the error I get:

Could Not Load Skin: /Portals/_default/Skins/HTML5BoilerXPlate/default.ascx, Error: C:\inetpub\vhosts\bluediamondserver.com\httpdocs\DesktopModules\40Fingers\SkinObjects\StyleHelper\StyleHelper.ascx.vb(1819): error BC30519: Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'Split' can be called without a narrowing conversion: 'Public Function Split(separator() As Char, count As Integer, options As System.StringSplitOptions) As String()': Argument matching parameter 'separator' narrows from 'String' to '1-dimensional array of Char'. Extension method 'Public Function Split(ParamArray separators() As String) As String()' defined in 'System.StringHelper': Argument matching parameter 'separators' narrows from 'Integer' to 'String'. Extension method 'Public Function Split(ParamArray separators() As String) As String()' defined in 'System.StringHelper': Argument matching parameter 'separators' narrows from 'System.StringSplitOptions' to 'String'.

Can you guide me on what I am doing wrong?

Thank you,
Don

First of all, which version of DotNetNuke are you using?

Can you post the line from your skin file that refers to the 40Fingers skin object? I think that the problem is there.

Dear Joe,

I've had a sudden outbreak of the same!

1. I have a producttion implementation running 6.2.6 with skins based on this HTML5 - it is OK

2. I have a localhost site on my laptop running 7.0.2

3. It has some pages with the same skin as the production - one with the default HTML5 - some pages with the default Aphelia skin - some with the Minimal Entropy

4. The HTML5 based skins give the error above

5. The HTML5 skins were working until yesterday - at about the time I installed a demo version of EasyDNN News and a demo version of DNNGO News

6. Here is the line that refers to the 40Fingers

<%@ Register TagPrefix="fortyfingers" TagName="STYLEHELPER" Src="~/DesktopModules/40Fingers/SkinObjects/StyleHelper/StyleHelper.ascx" %>

With Best Regards
Charles

Since the problems appeared after you installed two items, I'd look to them as the source of the problem.

Make sure, too, that you have the most recent version of the StyleHelper skin object installed. The error message in the original post refers to a problem with "Overload resolution" and that tends to indicate that the code is trying to do something that has been changed.
