Hello Everybody
We're having a strange problem with our dotnetnuke site when using a skin created in Artisteer2. The site itself is nice and grey, but the main layout is centered around a white sheet on a grey background.
When editing pages in the DotNetNuke html editor, it uses a frame, and strangely enough this frame reuses the style on "body" from the artisteer skin - making the background in the editor grey and the content (which are to be shown on a white page) almost disappear.
Now I know I can change the page.ascx and style.css directly and try to recreate the skin with a div background instead of using body styles, but I would like to know if anyone else has this problem and know of some other solution? Perhaps a solution in Artisteer I don't know about yet? :)

I checked with the DotNetNuke forum and discovered the "simple" solution. Add a < body > tag and give it a class like "bodystyle", then rename the .body style in the css file to bodystyle.
It works, but I was hoping for something inside Artisteer to do just that

Hi there I have just logged a bug with artisteer if you notice when using the fckeditor it plays up badly. Resolution is to use the telerik radeditor which has the issue above and also I have heaps of DNN and cant change all of mine over.

True, i´ve seen that since the DNN team implemented the TelerikEditor the skins from artisteer are not working well in EDIT mode...
Can someone please explaing to me exactly how do i fix this cause i´m still using the old editor... PLS!
Thank you!

ok here's the temporary fix that works for me until artisteer changes the .body style in the stylesheet:
1. Find your skin package (either the one deployed or the zip file you export with artisteer)
2. Edit Page.ascx (sometimes you have to extract the file, edit it and overwrite the file in the zip to do this)
2.a Add <body style="bodystyle"> in the top to just after all the <%@ lines.
2.b Add </body> at the end
3. Edit Style.css
3.a rename .body to .bodystyle
4. save your work - install skin if it's the exported rather than the online.
the bodytag added in the skinfile page.ascx will be stripped by dotnetnuke, but it WILL keep the styletag bodystyle - which means only your page body will use that style Iframes like the one in RAD editor will use default .body instead of the skin background

Thanks RUNE
I´m ok with editing the skins from artisteer, almost of the skins that i do are customized after that and i modify almost everything but this was one of the things i did not search about as it was more easy to change the editor in the web.config file...

I also experienced the same problem. Don't think it has anything to do with Artisteer. The new Telerik RadEditor seems to be the gremlin here.
From v5.4 onwards DotNetNuke now uses the Telerik RADEditor. This editor replaces the FCK Editor which has been used in previous versions of DotNetNuke.
The new Telerik RADEditor in DotNetNuke does however have its fair share of teething problems. One of them is a background issue. Basically what happens it that the Telerik RADEditor inherits the same background as the site that it is on. Gets really messy...
If you are looking for a solution to this problem, check out:

Hope this helps.

I typically just set the MinimalExtropy as the ADMIN area of ALL my sites.
So whenever I click EDIT, I get the Original DNN skin.
Under the Admin Area of your site, select Skins
1. in the "Skin Type" select HOST and Uncheck Portal
2. select MinimalExtropy Skin from drop menu
3. in the "Apply to" unCheck Portal and leave Admin Checked.
then I just "Apply" the 1024 (Skins Area)
done
I think someone elsed offered a CSS way to fix it, maybe I will try that and see, but I have 40 some sites I cover every week and update.
