I would like to be able to create a new token similar to DNN:TERMS that would point to an outside url (which would be the web hoster's site address). I've partially succeeded by adapting the Terms token, but how do I change it to go to a url outside the portal?

Many thanks for any help.

I would probably recommend that you start with a simple skin object, like the LOGO object.

Look at this for help: http://www.mitchelsellers.com/blogs...ject.aspx.

There is an older item here: http://www.wwwcoder.com/tabid/68/ty...fault.aspx

Basically, you want the skin object to render a link, and one of the attributes of the skin object would be the URL of the link.

I wonder why you want to do things this way, rather than just stick a module with a link where you need it? Is that because you want to just embed it into the skin and be done with it?

--------
Another way of doing something like this would be to add a div at the place in the skin where you want this to occur. Then, you could have a little bit of jQuery that adds the link to the div. If you add the jQuery code into an otherwise invisible HTML module, then you can change the link without altering the skin. Set the HTML module to appear on every page.

Thanks for your help Joe. The reason for wanting to do it this way is so that it could be embedded into the skin and be available across the entire site. I'd prefer not to do it using the Links module if I can possibly avoid it.

I should have mentioned that you can just hard code it into the skin, too!
