    I thought that I had seen you had a series of videos on this but I cannot find them. I need to make a simple mobile site for my client with vertical navigation and touch screen facilities. A site that will appear when a mobile device is used rather than their usual site. Do you have a set of videos for this?

    The recent tutorial, Issue 80 - How to Create a Responsive HTML5 Skin for DotNetNuke, is related to showing the same site on a variety of devices.

    We don't have any tutorials specific for redirecting to a mobile site, but you can find a TON of information by googling "DotNetNuke mobile"

    Hi Joe, I am following the How to Create a Responsive HTML5 Skin for DotNetNuke videos but have come to a full stop. When it says to upload the 40fingers dnn style helper, well that code is only for dnn 5.3.2 not dnn 6.1. I tried to read the text about it at:
    http://www.40fingers.net/WeblogsNew...ke-61.aspx

    but am now thoroughly confused. What should I do? Lee doesn't mention in the videos what to do if you are on dnn 6.1

    Thanks, Pam

    Pam,

    The Stylehelper skin object works just fine in later versions of DotNetNuke, up to 7.0. I'm using it in a couple of sites I'm developing now.

    For DNN 6.1 and later "Please note that due to a change in DNN 6.1, removing Stylesheets works differently" and this is covered in the documentation on codeplex and described in the blog post you mentioned. i should also mention that this project is the work of one of the more highly respected members of the community, and is kept up to date.

    So, use it and, if there are issues with it, let's discuss them.
