    Update: I can't explain it but never mind. I'm seeing the Gravity skin in Portal 0 now. The only thing I really did was empty the Recycle bin. Not sure if that triggered some sort of refresh or what.

    Hello,

    I'm seeing some very strange things with the Gravity skin on a site with three portals. The Gravity skin exists in portals/default/skins and, on portals 1 and 3 (there is no portal 2), I can see the Gravity skin in the skin selection dropdowns for the page and site as well as in the Host -> Extensions skin list.

    However, on portal 0, I cannot see the Gravity skin anywhere. I can't select it in Page Settings, the Admin Skins page, and I can't see it in the Host -> Extensions skin list.

    This doesn't make any sense to me. If I go to each site/portal and login with the same Host creds, how can I possibly see a different Extensions/Skins list?

    Why can't I see the Gravity skin in the skin dropdowns in the Page Settings for the Portal 0 site? Doesn't it just look at the list of folders under portals/default/skins?

    I've searched a bit and there are a few posts about similar problems but nothing really definitive.

    Thanks for any help,

    Tom

    Hmmm. That is odd.

    It may be that emptying the Recycle Bin forced a reload of the AppPool which fixed something that was a bit broken.

    In any event, I'm glad that this is working "normally."
