FAQs

FAQ's

  • Q: I see in your pane layouts that you do not feature an arrangement which is a 2/3 -1/3 (main content on the left with a secondary content or link module on the right. This is how I have my site configured now, and do not want to purchase a skin which cannot allow this... Can your skin be configured to allow this? Thanks!

    A: The payne layouts don't tell the complete story. The additional thing you need to know is that if a pane has no content, it will collapse and not take up any width. This sample page illustrates that the 2/3 - 1/3 layout you are looking for is easily achieved with this skin: http://mega.packflash.com/CaliperSkin/Marsupials/TasmanianDevils.aspx Further explanation is found on the sample page.

  • Q: Hello, I bought Caliper Skin with mega menu. How can I change date to spanish format. Thank you.

    A: Hi - the skin is using the standard DNN date display control. This is the same control that is used in the standard DNN skin (minimal extropy). If the date is not displaying properly for you there must be som DNN language setup/configuration that you need to do. When I use the language switcher in my test environment, the date does display properly in Spanish ... "lunes, 11 de julio de 2011" vs. "Monday, July 11, 2011" as I switch back and forth between en-US and es-ES.
