Continuing our series on
How to build a DotNetNuke website, we expand on the previous tutorial (
Styling and formatting in the Text/HTML module) and add content to the Home and Portfolio pages of the Vortex Music website.
The first three videos of this tutorial focus on the Home page, in particular working with the
Text/HTML module and the
FCKEditor. We demonstrate the best practices when working with the
Text/HTML module as well as working with images, uploading files and formatting the text.
The second half of the tutorial (6 videos) focuses on the portfolio page. We demonstrate how to programme the
skin.css file and the
FCKEditor so that you can quickly and easily create the Portfolio credits list. This page is created using just CSS, no tables are used and no images or formatting are placed in the source code of the page. The Portfolio page is styled completely using the
skin.css file.
