Hor. Menu Skins created with Artisteer 3

Hi ,

After updating my Mojoportal to Version 2.3.7.0 I've noticed that in all Skins (with Headermenu done in Artisteer 3) the horizontal Menu are broken down and they are displayed like a vertical list . (check here: http://www.thesmashingpawns.lu/home.aspx)

Can anybody help

Hi Yves,

What version did you upgrade from?

Have you applied the important skin changes for versions in between your previous version and the latest version?

Best,

Joe

Re: Hor. Menu Skins created with Artisteer 3

Hi Joe,

Done the following to try solving the problem! Copied from the the current Version 2.3.7.0 all files from

\httpdocs\Data\skins\artisteer-30headermenu to

httpdocs\Data\Sites\15\skins\artisteer-30headermenu (with no modifications!)

As the default skins are always updated with a new release it should work if I change the selected skin to "artisteer-30headermenu"!?

But unfortunately the same "gui glitchy..." Please take a lot at : http://www.thesmashingpawns.lu/

Thanks for help

Hi Yves,

If you are using .NET 3.5 in Medium Trust hosting then you also need to copy the theme.skin file from your skin folder into /App_Themes/default folder.

Hope that helps,

Joe

Hi Joe,

It's full trust hosting. I thinks that's not the problem!

No more ideas where I could look?

By the way the "Preview" of the skin looks good!?

Thanks

Yves

Hi Yves,

When I looked at your site just now it looked fine to me, the menu looks correct.

Best,

Re: Hor. Menu Skins created with Artisteer 3

I seem to have the same exact problem. In my preview mode, even the default artisteer templates that came with the mojo download look great, but as soon as I save that skin as my main skin it all goes away (plain text menus). I am using VS 2010 with a .net 4.0, latest version of Artisteer (demo version for testing, will click link on mojo site so you get your 25%).

Hi,

After double check the skin.theme and the master.page I noticed that there are some changes to do on the files. Take a look at the index.html oder page.html generated by Artisteer and you will see the difference between the master.page and those files.

After all my sites work!

Re: Hor. Menu Skins created with Artisteer 3

Even the Artisteer skins that came with mojoportal seem to behave incorrectly. Within preview mode the menu looks great, drop-downs work and everything. But soon as I apply the skin it doesn't work (the menus that is). Specifically I am talking about artisteer-30headermenu. Preview mode is great, applying the skin and the menu turns into plain text. It is very strange. I can zip and email the skin that came from code-plex, but not sure if that will help. Maybe it is the security issue I saw posted as a suggestion, but I attempted that work around and nothing.And it still doesnt explain why preview works great and live does not.

Re: Hor. Menu Skins created with Artisteer 3

I think I am close to solving the Artisteer menu issue. In preview mode, works great, and it has this markup:

But in LIVE mode, after I set the template to be the live skin, the menu has this markup:

So now all I have to do is figure how to change the Artisteer style sheet to reflect the aspnet-menu labels instead of the art-nav labels.

Re: Hor. Menu Skins created with Artisteer 3

Those classes on the menu are controlled by theme.skin. The only difference with preview mode is that a different cache key is used for the theme. So the problem seems to be a stubborn theme cache for the main skin which does not seem to clear as it should. Touching the theme.skin file or the web.config file should clear the cache but I have seen cases where it just seems stuck. A reboot might solve it if you are able to reboot.

What version of mojoPortal are you using?

Re: Hor. Menu Skins created with Artisteer 3

Not sure which version I am using, since it is the development version. I will download the latest dev version and try to rebuild my site. I am able to bounce the machine, so that isnt a problem, will give it a try. Thanks for all your help
