Upgraded and now my left panel is in odd place

I upgraded to the latest version today.  My left panel in layout.master is now in the main section right above my main section.  If I move the left content all the way to the right, it works fine.  Here is my layout maste...

 


                                <div class="art-sheet-body">
                                    <div class="art-content-layout">
                                        <div class="art-content-layout-row"> 
                                                <asp:Panel ID="divLeft" runat="server" CssClass="art-layout-cell art-sidebar1 leftside" Visible="false" SkinID="pnlPlain">
                                                        <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="leftContent" runat="server">
                                                        </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
                                                </asp:Panel>
                                                <asp:Panel ID="divCenter" runat="server" Visible="True" CssClass="center-rightandleftmargins" SkinID="pnlPlain">
                                                        <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="mainContent" runat="server">
                                                        </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
                                                </asp:Panel>
                                                <asp:Panel ID="divRight" runat="server" Visible="False" CssClass="art-layout-cell art-sidebar2 rightside" SkinID="pnlPlain">
                                                        <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="rightContent" runat="server">
                                                        </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
                                                </asp:Panel>
                                        </div>
                                    </div>

Re: Upgraded and now my left panel is in odd place

Is it a public site?

More likely cause is a missing or extra closing tag or something incorrect somewhere in the markup. I would check the page with the w3c validator as a first step to diagnosis.

Also you should review the Important Skin Changes for things that may have changed since your previous version.

Hope that helps,

Joe

Re: Upgraded and now my left panel is in odd place

There actually was a missing DIV caught by the w3c validator, thanks.  I fixed it and revalidated the site and it checks out fine now.  But the left still is showing up on the top.

 

If you look here http://www.sandiastaffingalliance.com/home.aspx , I put the side content to the right.  

 

If you look here, it should be on the left but is on top. http://www.sandiastaffingalliance.com/human-resources.aspx

Re: Upgraded and now my left panel is in odd place

Sorry but that is a css issue, I don't see how it can be upgrade related.

You have a hybrid of Artisteer css (from an older version of Artisteer), some grid system, and other things going on such as hard coded table styles including width set on the table (an unneccesary use of table for layout) in the middle that may be making it too wide so it falls below the left side because it overflows the natural width of the center.

The only reason I see it being upgrade related is that it worked fine this morning before I did the upgrade.  I will do a bit of digging, thank you.

Re: Upgraded and now my left panel is in odd place

I have been very careful not to break existing skins during upgrades and in cases where some change is needed I note them in the Important Skin Changes article.

Our extraskins.zip (on our codeplex download page) has skins from older versions of Artisteer going back to version 2, 2.4, 3, and 3.1 and all of those skins still work correctly with the latest version of mojoPortal even though the markup and css for Artisteer has changed a lot over those versions.

I have never offered any support for changes made to the Artisteer designs or exported css outside of Artisteer. Your skin has modifications to the Artisteer css, additional things from some grid framework, and superfish, and hard coded styles and tables used for layout inside the content. All of these things introduce variables beyond what I can offer support for or forsee the impact of during upgrades.

The safest course of action is to always upgrade a local copy of a site first to evaluate any possible problems before upgrading the production site.

Re: Upgraded and now my left panel is in odd place

I completey understand about not supporting custom changes.  I'll see what I can figure out or grab a new skin.  Thanks.
