     I have a rather interesting effect going on in DNN 4.x(I'm actually using 4.5.5

    I'm trying to apply a specific skin style to my Admin pages and a specific style to my portal pages.
    The trouble is when i select the check box for applying a certain skin only to the "ADMIN" it still applies the skin i've selected as the Admin to the entire portal.

    Or vice versa when i try to Apply a certain skin to only the "PORTAL" and deselect the "Admin" check box, then my designated portal skin is applied to the entire site including the Admin pages.

    How do i fix this? or what am i over looking? Or is there a suggested work around?

    Basically all i'm trying to accomplish is i want to apply a different skin to the Admin Pages. Please Advise

    Are you referring to the check boxes on the Skins page? If so, you are at the wrong place!

    To apply a skin to your site, you should visit the Admin/Site Settings page and click the + to open the Appearance settings. You'll find drop down boxes there to select the default skin and container for the Portal and the Admin pages. You have similar settings on each page if you want to specifiy a particular skin and/or container on a particular page.
